The bands third album “Wake Up” (produced & mixed in their home studio by the bands frontman, Sean Gregory) reached #8 on the Billboard reggae charts. Their latest body of work “Rhythm of Life” is a collection of songs recorded and released during the pandemic and has become their best received album to date. Signal Fire’s music is constantly evolving, with a maintained focus on positive and thoughtful lyrical content.

The bands energetic and uplifting live show has placed them on stage and tours with acts such as Stephen Marley, UB40, SOJA, Morgan Heritage, Collie Buddz, Matisyahu, Tribal Seeds, The Movement & more.
