The Little Flames were an indie rock band from Hoylake, England. The band consisted of Eva Petersen (Vocals), Greg Mighall (Drums), Joe Edwards (Bass), Miles Kane (Guitar) and Mat Gregory (Guitar). Their music can best be described as indie rock with some '60s inspiration, slightly similar to The Coral. Fans of the band include Arctic Monkeys, who could be seen wearing Little Flames t-shirts at concerts at the Astoria in London. The band has played shows with bands such as the Arctic Monkeys, The Coral, The Dead 60s and The Zutons.

The band's song "Put Your Dukes Up, John" was covered by the Arctic Monkeys for their single, "Leave Before the Lights Come On".

[edit] 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. The band's run was short lived, and they split up on May 15, 2007. Miles Kane, Joe Edwards and Greg Mighall have gone on to form The Rascals, whilst Eva Petersen is pursuing a solo career. Both are still on Deltasonic Records. Miles Kane is also in The Last Shadow Puppets with Alex Turner of the Arctic Monkeys.
