Fire in the Mountains has revealed the first wave of bands set to perform at its 2027 edition, including Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Nevermore and Russian Circles.
The initial lineup also features Stormkeep, Invunche, Rwake and Buffalo Nichols, with additional artists to be announced.
Festival organizers shared the following statement: “While we are still processing the immense experience that was Fire In The Mountains 2026 at Red Eagle Campground, we are excited to peel back some of what we have been working on for 2027, which has revealed itself as the Year Of The Eagle.
“We have quite a special edition in the works for this coming year, featuring bands with a legendary command of soundscapes and artistry, to returning fast riffing metal legends, post metal icons, symphonic black metal rippers, musical purveyors of Chilean mythology, American sludge darkness, and blues laden storytelling. We already look forward to joining you once again at the Backbone of The World next Summer—and cannot WAIT to share what else we have in store.”
Fire in the Mountains is an open-air music and cultural festival held at Red Eagle Campground on the Blackfeet Nation. The event combines heavy music with the surrounding landscape and Indigenous cultural experiences.
The festival works in partnership with the Firekeeper Alliance, a nonprofit organization focused on suicide reduction and mental wellness within the Blackfeet Nation. The event also aims to raise awareness of mental health and wellness within music and artistic communities and beyond.
Tickets for Fire in the Mountains 2027, including camping options, are on sale now. Additional lineup announcements are expected in the coming months.
