“1999 WILDFIRE” is the first song to be released from the band’s Beats One radio show, “Things We Lost in the Fire.” The song was premiered live at the Ottawa Bluesfest the night before the broadcast of their radio show on July 6, 2018.

As for the title of the song, Kevin has brought up 1999 before in “JUNKY”

It’s kinda sick and I was born in 1996 and
1999 the only year that I remember

This song is also most likely named after the movie Wildfire: Feel the Heat that came out in 1999. It would also make sense as “1998 TRUMAN” is also named after a movie, The Truman Show and it’s year of release.
