Five men in leather jackets pose confidently against a gray brick wall. One wears a red jacket. The setting has a cool, edgy vibe.

Helsinki melodic rock heavyweights Brother Firetribe are set to release a new maxi EP – Number One EP through Gramophone Records It will be the band’s first new music since 2020’s critically acclaimed “Feel The Burn” album.

Number One EP is a collection of seven tracks of trademark Brother Firetribe – instant melodic rock overlaid with the stunning vocals of Pekka Heino. The EP brings two new classics, “Number One” and “How Long Till Tomorrow”, with a stunning acoustic version of “Bring On the Rain” and four previously released singles together for the first time.

Pekka Heino says, “Number One EP is a sort of an interim statement where we wanted to tie together the songs we’ve put out since the covid years on one solid release with some new material of which we’re super excited about! Can’t wait to go out and play all of them live soon and then dig deep into working on a full blown fresh new album. Tribe is on a roll!”

The band was formed in 2002 in Kerava (Finland) when vocalist Pekka Heino, keyboardist Tomi Nikulainen and bassist Jason Flinck met with guitarist Emppu Vuorinen (also known as one of the founding members of Nightwish). Ther band have gone on to release five critically acclaimed albums, a live concert DVD and killer melodic rock songs like “One Single Breath”, “Heart Full Of Fire”, “I Am Rock”, “For Better Or For Worse” and the only possible soundtrack for a Rocky movie never made, “Taste Of A Champion”. The band effortlessly mix melody with driving rock.
