'''The On Fires''' are an international touring band from Melbourne, Australia.

==History==
Formed in 2003 by the amalgamation of bands Velvet Llama and Trace, The On Fires (known then as [http://www.last.fm/music/Asleep+in+the+Park Asleep in the Park]) retained the two lead singers Max and Marty. Recording and releasing their debut album [https://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?playListId=7393126 ''Sky Caves In''] in 2004, the band embarked on a national tour with [[Epicure (band)|Epicure]] [http://www.rarerecords.com.au/posters/index.cfm?action=item&id=21633 Epicure], followed by extensive touring in and around [[Melbourne]] during 2005/06. 2006 saw the band return to the studio, resulting in the EP [http://theonfires.bandcamp.com/album/let-you-go ''Let You Go''], released at the end of June 2007.

(contracted; show full)

After a break of several years from Europe, fellow Australians [http://www.thevagrants.com The Vagrants] invited the band to re-acquaint themselves with Germany as openers on an 11-date, 3 week tour, which also led them to play with Julian Thome, before the band returned to China for [[Midi Modern Music Festival|Midi Festival]] in Beijing and [https://www.youtube.com/user/zmfchina Zebra Festival] in Chengdu.
