Musician, performer, band manager with The On Fires

Who knew that two kids meeting at an Aussie swimming camp would years later become a blur of red hair, sweat and mayhem, with 13 international tours and a list of releases under their belts?!

With pounding rhythm, retro keys, dirty Gibson guitar and a show designed to involve the audience, The On Fires (Max Harman and Marty Xennoff) have been compared to an eclectic range of artists including David Bowie, Hot Hot Heat, Arcade Fires, The Sex Pistols, B52s, Iggy Pop, Foo Fighters, Green Day, Siouxsie and the Banshees.

From performing free Sunday afternoon shows at a little bar in Melbourne, The On Fires have performed in over 21 countries around the world including China, Ukraine, UK, Pacific Islands and the US.

Experienced and adaptable The On Fires have performed in Warsaw boardrooms, massive festivals in China, Womens Prison, hired halls, backyards & pubs/clubs around the world. Born of touring necessity, they use innovative methods to produce a big rockin' sound in a 2-3 piece format.

A true 'DIY' band who use day-jobs to pay for services a traditional label might have done, they defiantly hold their place in the new musical world order with the help of a loyal fan-base who help feed, promote and accommodate them around the world.
