Fire & Spice — All Asia Oct. 7, 2011

At first glance, the 11-and-12-year old musicians that comprise Fire & Spice may incite one to think of names like Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus. Think again.

The only thing this hard-rocking foursome from Haverhill has in common with the aforementioned pair of pop starlets is that they were all born in the 1990’s. The lads and lasses from Fire & Spice, when asked to share some of their influences, rattled off names like Rush, Slipknot, Rob Zombie and Kiss, surely more substantial fare than that consumed by the likes of Hannah and The Biebs, one should think.

In any event, these kids certainly don’t act their ages when on stage, and display a level of confidence rarely glimpsed in such youthful performers.

On October 7, the precocious young rockers made their Cambridge debut, playing an extended set at the All Asia (yes, really), and we were there, like the proverbial fly on the wall, to observe the proceedings.
