Fire On Dawson
Fire on Dawson is a German rock band from Karlsruhe, Germany, formed in 2006. The current line-up consists of Indian vocalist Ankur Batra, bassist Martin Sonntag, guitarist Markus Stricker and drummer Max Siegmund. Since its formation, Fire on Dawson has released two full-length studio album ('Prognative' & '7 Billion and a Nameless Somebody') and one EP ' Seven Symptoms'. Though initially starting out as an experimental funk metal project, the band has over time developed a unique alternative/progressive rock sound, aided by the various musical and cultural influences the different band members have brought along with them. The sound of the band is characterised by their determination to not stick to one particular style which allows them to explore the entire spectrum. This, coupled with the vocal and lyrical ability of frontman Ankur Batra, has placed Fire on Dawson at the forefront of their genre in the European music scene. Fire on Dawson's second full-length album, '7 Billion and a Nameless Somebody' (released on 31 July 2012), has been highly lauded worldwide, with many leading magazines and music journalists particularly impressed by the band's creativity and original sound. The release is the follow-up to the band's critically acclaimed debut album
