We Start Fires are a female-fronted punk-pop rock 'n' roll band formed in Darlington in 2002. They consist of Becky Stefani (vocals and guitar), Melissa Marx (synths and vocals), Nikki Vaughan (bass and vocals), and Becky's younger brother Ashley Wade (drums).
Their first limited edition single, "Strut", received radio airplay from Zane Lowe, Rob Da Bank, Steve Lamacq, Mark Riley and John Kennedy.[1] John Peel mentioned them in his book Margrave Of The Marshes.[2]
They performed at SXSW, for which they were filmed as the subjects of a documentary film later shown on the BBC's The Culture Show.[3][2]
