Having released their debut ‘Man Vs Monster’ in 2008 after forming in late 2003, Fighting With Wire are an explosive live force whose reputation has seen them being compared to everyone from Biffy Clyro to At The Drive In.

Fighting With Wire emerged from the ever creative Northern Ireland music scene in 2003, the brainchild of guitarist Cahir O’Doherty (Jetplane Landing/Clearshot) and drummer Craig McKean (Clearshot).

An idealistic bunch, they’ve since done what rock bands are meant to do: they wrote a bunch of songs, and took to the road.

The last three years has seen them play shows with the likes of Reuben, Biffy Clyro, Million Dead, Seafood, YCNI:M and Future Of The Left, racking up hundreds of miles and honing their live show into a ferocious explosion in the process.

FWW play Animal Disco at Aunties on Friday 12th August 2011. Tickets are on sale from Auntie Annie’s Bar and www.cdcleisure.net.
