Everlasting Bonfire enters on the singing and songwriting of mainstay Carl Watkins. It is a progression from Watkins’ previous band Daisy Chain Halo, a powerful and popular live act, from the end of 2005. While the sound has evolved away from the crashing dynamics of the ‘Halo and into a more acoustic sensibility, it still retains the same level of vicissitudinous passion and intensity.
Everlasting Bonfire has played live regularly as a solo acoustic show, as a trio featuring Matty Thomas Taylor on bass and keys, and Trevor Faville on drums and percussion, all the way up to a fuller ensemble with woodwind brass and strings. A notable live performance was captured live at the Gallagher Performing arts center in Hamilton, New Zealand . This is currently being developed into a live DVD.
