History
The Little Flames formed in December 2004, after members of the band were introduced to each other by dub and punk DJ Babylon Fox.[3] The band's run was short lived, and split up on 15 May 2007 prior to the release of their debut album,[4] which was not released until 2016.[5] Miles Kane, Joe Edwards and Greg Mighall went on to form The Rascals, whilst Eva Petersen is pursuing a solo career.[6] Mat Gregory, who was the main songwriter for The Little Flames, continues to work as an artist, writer and musician. Miles Kane has since left The Rascals to pursue a solo career. The Day is Not Today was released by Deltasonic Records in 2016.[5]
