Fire Flies [2002-2008] met and formed their groove-sparked pop band in the music department at the SUNY Purchase. They recorded their first release, "Baobabs in the Basement," (2003) in their dorm room over the course of a semester. Essentially joyful and buoyant, BITB serves up Fire Flies' response to love and betrayal in cadences that lift and melodies that soar; while the lyrics, melody, and groove of their sophomore album, "Two New Sciences!" (recorded in their basement in Brooklyn and released in June of 2007) has a much darker and more raucous desperation.
