Firekid is the brainchild of virtuoso guitarist and singer Dillon Hodges. A child prodigy at guitar, Dillon won the National Guitar Championship at the age of 17. After attending college, Dillon moved to Nashville to work on music that could help him grow from the confines of the Bluegrass world to hitting a bigger audience.
Returning to his roots, Firekid recorded the debut album in Muscle Shoals with the help of producer and songwriter Sam Hollander, who took Dillon's natural musicality and helped shape a record that combined the country roots that Dillon knew and the bigger record he knew the band had in them.
