Music matters… at least great music does. Founded by Chris McMurtry and Mike and Janet Linton, REFINERSFIRE is committed to the idea that great music is one of the highest achievements of civilization and that its continued cultivation is essential to civilization’s health. By performing, recording, and distributing both great new music and educational materials about great music, we at REFINERSFIRE — if but momentarily and fragilely — seek to “push back the darkness” that can overtake a people if they succumb to the ultimately self-destructive culture that is the product of rapacious consumerism. The “refiner’s fire” both purifies and enlightens.
