I see, via bluegrassblog, that Wildfire is getting themselves back together after big personnel changes.  I liked the first incarnation a lot, they picked good songs and had the right ideas about how to present them.

When they played at Suwannee in 05 they introduced Bradley Walker and backed him up on a couple of songs, including the country classic  “I Never Go Around Mirrors” which Bradley nailed in his inimitable style.  It was a generous move, giving him the spotlight and backing him up so well and made me think even better of them.

On mandolin they’ve added Chris Davis whose work with Larry Cordle really impressed our whole band.  At Graves Mt. last year he was on fire, singing high and playing hard.  With Cord laying low recuperating its really good that Chris will be out gigging.  Check him out if you get a chance
