Grapevine Fires

"Grapevine Fires" is a song by American indie rock band Death Cab for Cutie, the fourth single from their sixth studio album, Narrow Stairs, released February 3, 2009, on Atlantic Records.

[1] "Grapevine Fires" was featured in the NBC drama Heroes in the episode "Ink", and it also appeared on the 2009 compilation album, Change Is Now: Renewing America's Promise.

The drumbeat of the song is modeled after the "Purdie Shuffle", although drummer Jason McGerr says it is more of an emulation, as opposed to a replication, of the famous drum pattern.

It features a semi-literal interpretation of the lyrics by showing a wildfire and its effect on the lives of the people in the video.

The band members make a cameo appearance loading a van.
