James Hardy & The Fire

Hailing from Salt Lake City, Utah James Hardy & The Fire is more than just a band—we are a family of musicians and friends sharing our love and passion for life through music.  Rooted in rock, with reggae, funk, and hip-hop influences, we create an electrifying live experience built on tight grooves, dynamic vocals, standout guitar work, and a brass-infused sound. 

We've had the honor of sharing the stage with the funk legend George Clinton & Parliament Funkadelic, reggae-rock giants The Elovaters, and Colorado headliners Satsang, bringing high-energy performances that resonate across audiences.  

At its core, The Fire represents the spark that ignites when talented musicians and passionate fans come together—blending raw emotion, infectious rhythms, and a love for live performance. There’s room for everybody around the fire. We believe in music as a unifying force and are proud to take the stage and add our verse to the song of the universe.
