BLACK PISTOL FIRE “Sleep on these guys at your own risk, because what they did to BMI on Friday afternoon was unholy… leaving a trail of scorched earth and melted minds.” - Consequence of Sound, Lollapalooza 2015 Black Pistol Fire is a high-octane rock duo based out of Austin, Texas by way of Toronto, Canada; composed of Kevin McKeown on guitar/lead vocals and Eric Owen on drums. Drawing inspiration from blues, R&B and rock greats such as Led Zeppelin, Chuck Berry, Nirvana, Buddy Holly and Muddy Waters, BPF’s gritty and dynamic performances are fueled by undeniable musicianship. Dubbed the “next big thing” by Huffington post after SXSW 2013, BPF has developed a reputation for their untamed live performances. Described as “Pure fire on stage”(Degenrefy), they are quickly becoming festival veterans, including performances at Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits, Bonnaroo, Sasquatch Music Festival, Shaky Knees and Governor's Ball, among others. After Lollapalooza 2015, Yahoo Music described Black Pistol Fire as “a power duo that can almost match the power and intensity of the massive rock sounds of the likes of Led Zeppelin and Fleetwood Mac… in a breakout set.” Black Pistol Fire has shared the stage with acts like Gary Clark Jr, Weezer, Heart, Wolfmother, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and Band of Skulls. Their signature sound has been featured throughout television and entertainment. Their single, “Show Pony” was featured in the Ted 2 official trailer and they performed their song “Blue Eye Commotion” in a national T-Mobile TV ad. Their music can also be heard in Madden ‘15 and Tony Hawk Pro Skater 5 video games and in numerous TV shows including Sons of Anarchy, Castle and About a Boy. "Black Pistol Fire… were, by far, the best band that played LouFest… This was the craziest I've seen any of the crowds at the festival… Drummer Eric Owen, shirtless and wrists wrapped, pounded the skins like he was summoning a devil. McKeown stomps so hard during his rough and intricate dirty blues, you thought he would make a hole in the stage... A must see." - KDHX (St Louis), Loufest 2014 New album, "Don't Wake the Riot" out May 20th! Pre-order now on iTunes and recieve our new single "Bad Blood" instantly!

Every time I see them it’s better and better! The best show I’ve seen in 20 years! And hands down one of the best high octane concert experiences in the business! Keep doing what your doing and I’ll keep supporting you guys! All time favorite bands! 🙌🏽🤓🤘🏽⚡️🎸🎛📻🎙🎚📽
Brighton Music Hall Boston, MAI can honestly say that this was one of the best live shows I’ve ever seen. My daughter injured her collar bone when Kevin fell off the stage landing on her but even that couldn’t wipe the smiles from our faces. Amazing.
The Opera House Toronto, ONThey were so awesome but I wish they would have had a bigger crowd to play for. Hopefully people that were there will spread the word so they’ll come back and we can get more people to the show.
Metro Music Hall Salt Lake City, UTBlack Pistol Fire was awesome, show was played at A&R Bar, smaller venue which I thought turned out great! I wish there’d been more people there bc their energy was trying to tear the roof off!!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Newport Music Hall Columbus, OHExcellent preformance. High energy, great playing. Seeing their first live performance of "Beyond the Blue" during the encore was a special treat. One of my favourite tracks on Look Alive. Would definitely see them again.
