The song chronicles the heart-wrenching decision of Lyle and Marilyn Hileman, an elderly couple who chose to stay behind in their beloved home during the devastating 2020 wildfire. With its emotive lyrics and haunting harmonica by Bob Reed, the track blends rock and roots blues to create an unforgettable listening experience. If you’re seeking a song that’s both musically captivating and emotionally charged, “Troublesome Fire” is one you don’t want to miss.
