Firewind is een power metalband uit Thessaloniki, Griekenland, opgericht in 1998 door Gus G, die tevens de belangrijkste sologitarist van de groep is. De muziek van Firewind kenmerkt zich door klassieke powermetalstructuren, originele ingewikkelde riffs, heldere zang en unieke gitaarsolo's. De band heeft negen studioalbums uitgebracht en heeft internationaal succes geboekt.

Bezetting

In de eerste jaren van het bestaan van de band, wisselde de bezetting regelmatig. Nadat Apollo Papathanasio bij de band gekomen was, kort na het verschijnen van het vierde album, bleef de bezetting echter stabiel.
