The Fight
ESTABLISHED 2010. .... Born of the dark cold nights, we are The Fight. .... I found my brothers at different times. .... There's Paul (Todd Andrews) with always-rosy cheeks, running his fingers up and down the bass. Like a heartbeat skipping, he lays it down thick and heavy for hips to follow. .... We're tall and skinny on guitar, sunny and dark. With golden locks we have Devin Fortier picking away, sure and steady. He lends his voice on occasion and it's a pleasant one to hear. Erik Grice hits the skins and sings backups. He's our funny guy, sometimes wears a moustache. He keeps the beat that we all follow, like the chief of the tribe. Me, well I just like putting words together here and there. They can be about the pretty ones, the lost ones, paying rent, getting out of the city or an ex-lover in the rain. We've been running together since the Spring of 2010. We go down to the basement and get to work. So far the songs just seem to flow. We don't have anything to prove and we don't try and be anything we're not, so things come really naturally. We wear our influences on our sleeve but they're broad and varied from the sounds of Motown to punk and rock and roll. It's a good feeling. Awhile back we recorded our first cuts at a cabin at a lake in the woods. We laid things down as fast as we could, like bee's making honey. We didn't quite finish what we had to finish at the lake so we tracked the rest in the spare room of my house. Soon enough we'll have the mixes and we'll share them with you and you can share them with yours. We have plans to release a 7" single by the end of the year. We're almost finished writing an album, we'll record it this winter and have it out by next summer. Those will come out on our own Paperbird Music label. Keeping the DIY ethic alive and well. There's Mo, Mo is our 86' Dodge Van. He's the most recent addition to our family. He gets us to where we need to go, thus far without fail. It has big comfortable seats to boot. He's great on the open road. We've only just started hitting different cities, but we've got a lot in the works. Live is best, we like playing to the people. The Fight has seen pretty faces in Edmonton, Calgary, Saskatoon, and Regina. We're going to reach out to the rest of the west in due time, sooner rather than later. We'd love to see you..... We want to make you feel electric..... -Bradey Feil..
