Backyard Tire Fire Release The Places We Lived Today, Stream Album All Week
 

Backyard Tire Fire’s fourth album The Places We Lived, out now on Hyena Records, is winning over fans and fresh ears alike with its exciting brand of indie roots-rock and down to earth songwriting. Streaming right now on AOL Spinner and My Old Kentucky Blog, The Places We Lived has been called “Midwestern Americana at it’s slice-of-hard-life best” by Berkeley Place, and CYSTSFTS calls it “lovelorn with yearning nostalgia but coupled with straight-up Southern-fried noise.” Stop Okay Go recently conducted an interview with frontman Ed Anderson right here.

The band starts their headlining tour with Ha Ha Tonka next week in Chicago, before embarking on a slew of December dates with the legendary Reverend Horton Heat.

What The Press Is Saying About Backyard Tire Fire:

"My favorite band right now is Backyard Tire Fire. They sometimes remind me of early Wilco, Son Volt and Flaming Lips. And they unabashedly name check both Wayne Coyne and Tom Petty in song. They are my earworm the last few months." -- Johnny Hickman, Cracker

"Every time you turn around there seems to be another alternative band out there that sounds just like every other alternative band until you get to the point of wondering who they think they are an alternative too. So it's a real pleasure to find a band like Backyard Tire Fire that really is an alternative to the usual dreck that passes for different." - BlogCritics.org

"The bluesy piano romps are just as good as the rock anthems -- lovelorn with yearning nostalgia but coupled with straight-up Southern-fried noise -- Highly recommended" -- Can You See The Sunset

"Equate the sound to how you feel when go to your nearest smokey bar, light a cigarette, order a bucket, kick back and kinda feel like you don't give a f*ck. In other words, it's a real good feeling you get listening to these guys." -- My Old Kentucky Blog

“Backyard Tire Fire are the choice we make when the extremes always sound too extreme, the bright lights feel too foreign, the money’s not important, the beer’s on ice and the clothes we like most are the ones that we’ve had on our bodies for decades and we know what made all of the holes and rough patches in them.” –-Daytrotter

"Take everything you love about Patterson Hood’s emotional grit, The Old 97s classic barnburner footstompers, and the spirit Whiskeytown had when Ryan still had something to prove, and you’ve already got a good sense of what the band is about." -- Berkeley Place
