General informationFormerly the Baobabs, Fire Flies met and formed in the music department at SUNY Purchase. The group describes itself as a blend of David Bowie and The Flaming Lips with a hint of hip-hop added to the mix. They are known to have a penchant for singing about aliens and robots, and have a large following of loyal fans. Fire Flies recorded their first album, entitled Baobabs In The Basement, in their dorm room over the course of a semester, and released a new, more professionally recorded LP called Two New Sciences! in June 2007. Their song "More Than This" is now being used on HBO promos. In late 2008, the band decided to focus on other projects. However, they are all still working together in various capacities, and remain friends.
