Like all good things it’s taken some time for Firefay to take shape as a band. Lately, things have been changing quite fast.
It all started with Carole & Béné meeting in London, through work, and since there was nothing very interesting to talk about related to that topic, they started talking about other things, such as music, and France, their native country (Limoux, and Toulouse, the beautiful south, for Carole; Finistère, Brittany, for Béné). Carole had written a few songs but she didn’t want to sing them, and since Béné was a keen singer, they decided to get together and see how it would go. And in Béné, Carole found her voice. They recorded a first album together, with Adam on guitar (and several related instruments) and production, and the occasional help of Seb (cello/percussions).
After a few months of silence (other projects going on, so little time...), new songs started flooding in, but Béné was too busy to participate and at first Carole decided to give singing a go (see Night Spell), before they found Armelle, who’s just been recording The Gargoyle’s Lament for us and will be participating in our first live performances. Let’s not forget Marco, who’s joined us on bass and sitar and has already recorded a song (as of yet unfinished), Stupidly Happy. With still the occasional help from Seb, on oud and percussions. More to come soon!
