There were four of us. We made music together. Sometimes our songs were about machines and robots. Sometimes they were about outer space. Sometimes they were about getting lost in other dimensions. And then, sometimes they were about people who weren’t sure what they were doing in this one. We knew an alien when we saw one.

We were a band called Fire Flies, but now we've broken up. Thank you all so much for your support throughout the past seven-some-odd years, it meant the world to us. Be assured that all things must end, and this too shall pass. We all plan to continue to bring you all music you can sing with, dance to, laugh about, and cry over. From the bottom of our hearts, we love you.





Hey! We won the Emergenza final in Rothenberg, Germany! Fire Flies came in first place out of 6,000 bands, plus Seth won best drummer, and got to play in front of thousands of people. We came back from Germany with new instruments and new microphones and some serious jetlag. For the full story, click here!

Check out the other bands we played with at the Emergenza Final! They’re awesome.

For centuries, the Taj Mahal has inspired poets, painters and musicians to try and capture its elusive magic in word, colour and song. It is one of the most flawless architectural creations of the world. Since the 17th century, travellers have crossed continents to come and see this ultimate memorial to love, and few have been unmoved by its incomparable beauty.Taj Mahal stands in the city of Agra, in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, on the banks of the Yamuna River. It was built in the memory of the beautiful Arjumand Bano Begum, who won the heart of a Mughal prince. She was married at 21 to Emperor Jahangir’s third son Prince Khurram and stayed loyally by his side through good times and bad: in the luxurious royal palaces of Agra .In AD 1628, Khurram became king. He took the name Shahjahan or “King of the World” and showered his beloved begum with the highest titles. She became Mumtaz Mahal, the exalted of the palace and Mumtaz-ul-Zamani, the exalted of the Age. In 1631, Shahjahan went on an expedition to the south and, as always, Mumtaz Mahal accompanied him. she died in childbirth at Burhanpur. She had borne Shahjahan fourteen children, of whom four sons and three daughters survived. When Mumtaz Mahal died, she was just 39 years old. Shahjahan was inconsolable and contemporary chronicles tell of the royal court mourning for two years. there was no music, no feasting, and no celebration of any kind. Epitome Of Love -Taj Mahal Shahjahan, who was a passionate builder, now decided to erect a memorial to his queen in pristine marble that the world would never forget. The site selected for the tomb was a garden by the Yamuna river, unshadowed by any other structure. The garden had been laid by Raja Man Singh of Amber Yemen sent agates, the corals came from Arabia, the garnets from Bundelkhand, onyx and amethyst from Persia. Mumtaz Mahal’s final resting-place was ornamented like a queen’s jewel-box.
