Mars Bonfire was the stage name used by rock musician Dennis Edmonton, perhaps best known for writing the hit song "Born to Be Wild" for Steppenwolf.
He was born Dennis Eugene McCrohan in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. Both Dennis and his brother, Jerry, changed their surnames to Edmonton in the early 1960s. The brothers were part of a band called The Sparrows which later evolved into Steppenwolf. Another member of The Sparrows was Bruce Palmer who later became a member of Buffalo Springfield.
Bonfire embarked on a solo career while his brother Jerry became the drummer for Steppenwolf.
