Up in Flames started out as Potrero, named after a trail where we used to hang out, dream big, and write music. When that trail was destroyed in the LA wildfires, everything changed. We scrapped the album we were about to release and burned it all down, just like the trail that inspired our name.
From the ashes came Up in Flames — a raw, no-frills punk band driven by chaos, passion, and the need to start over. Our sound is loud, messy, and unapologetic, channeling the energy of starting fresh when everything feels lost.
