Wild Fire is an American hard rock band founded in Biloxi, Mississippi, on November 5, 2015. it currently consists of Zack Sawyer (vocals and piano), Kevin Bronner (guitar), Garrett Warman (guitar), Landon Alexander (bass) and Cameron Alidor (drums). The band emerged from Cathercist founded by former Wild Fire guitarist Taylor Roberts. After Cathercist lost some band members they recruited new ones, which changed the band's musical direction. As a result, the band no longer felt comfortable performing under their original name and changed it to Wild Fire. Before this transformation, Cathercist had released two albums titled The Untimely Death of Zack Sawyer and As Hope Expires.

Wild Fire released their single, "Villain", on November 5, 2015, which was later included on their debut album released on May 23, 2017, titled Revolt. With this release, they also announced the end of Cathercist. Revolt contains 15 tracks, one of them a cover of Dr. Hook's "The Cover of Rolling Stone", the album's final track.

On March 29, 2018, Wild Fire announced in a Facebook post about an upcoming acoustic record and revealed that Taylor Roberts would be leaving the band. It has been reported that Alidor also left Wild Fire with Roberts, but the band has not confirmed this. On July 26, 2018, Wild Fire announced that Wade Sigue will be replacing Taylor Roberts as lead guitarist. Then on August 2, 2018, Sawyer announced their new musical project is called At the Lake House; each song from will be released independently, not collectively as an album.

On January 10, 2019, the band revealed through a Facebook livestream that their new drummer is Britt Hartley, and he will be replacing Cameron Alidor. Soon after this, it was reported that Hartley had already left the band. With no further comment, Zack Sawyer said “it wasn’t working out.”
