“It's always love and loss, I can’t seem to escape writing about it,” says Fireflys frontman Lee Wylding of his compositions. “I think it's because everyone knows how they feel.”
Wylding’s work is so redolent with emotion and heart, even though everyone does indeed know how love and loss feel, now they’re going to know how they sound.
Falling somewhere between the Counting Crows, the Jayhawks and Grand Drive, The Fireflys play a moving blend of road-weary rock and roll and shimmering Americana, all punctuated by the heartfelt poeticism of Wylding’s lyrics.
Robert Frost once observed that fireflies, “Achieve at times a very star-like start” and 2018 has found the band making a noticeable surge as of late. Manchester United play their music before their matches, they’ve supported Noel Gallagher, Ocean Colour Scene and Icicle Works and “Runaway” recently landed at #1 on Amazon and #5 on iTunes.
This House Is Ours is the latest single release taken from the bands upcoming 5th album “Only Us, Northern Lights” due for release early 2019 on Strawberry Moon records.
The Fireflys are an alternative/folk-rock indie band from Runcorn, North-West England. The band are Lee Wylding (vocals/guitar), Sam Bramhall (bass), Chris Tann (piano), Andie Packer (drums) & Joe Paul Forber (acoustic guitar).
"From breakups to breakdowns, Lee Wylding knows that the heart is always getting a workout. But battered and bruised as it may be, his songs are always punctuated by a ferocious resolve to find the fight that lurks beneath the wreckage. Burning with optimism and hope, Wylding is the perfect tour guide to not only get you out of the ravine and into the sunlight, but to get you back into the world
feeling more alive than ever…" Alex Green, Stereo Embers Magazine
