THE FIREFLIES
The story
A band that shouldn't exist.
The Fireflies arrive in the mid-1970s from an unlikely collision of eccentric British bands, bringing melody, harmony, orchestration and studio experimentation with them.
1967–72
The Sidestep
Inventive British pop, studio experimentation and a taste for the unexpected.
1971–75
Flying Saucer
Orchestral ambition meets melodic rock, laying foundations for the Fireflies sound.
1972–76
2x4
Dry humour, elaborate harmonies and studio wizardry enter the picture.
The current line-up
Seven Fireflies.
Meet the band. The site can be expanded later with instruments, biographies and individual stories.
