Fire Blue Sun – Lunar remake for Sound Gem Recordings

fireblue — Wed, 21 May 2008 20:28:31 +0000

Fire Blue Sun’s members Liz and Jimmy teamed up with bassist/producer Brian Hopely a while back to do a remake for Frank over at Sound Gems Recordings. Frank asked us to see what we could do with this song from Lunar, one of the labels artists. You can find it on our Home and MySpace pages.

The Fire Blue Sun line up

fireblue — Sat, 10 May 2008 19:18:30 +0000

With all thats been going on, we haven’t had a chance to introduce the newest members of the Band. So, since our bassist Dave just joined the ranks, I figured it was a good time to update.

Dave came about as a result of our search (see below) for a bassist. (just a quick note to thank everyone who replied for their interest, and positive feedback). Dave’s funky style fit nicely into the mix and was the first person that I’ve seen come through that really did his homework… tabs and all.

Mike, our guitar player, has been with us for about 2 months and has been helping shape a new ambiance to the band’s sound with his ambient overdubs and solos. We’ve had a couple other guitars players sit in in the past, but Mike’s style seems to fit much, much better. Mike is a tattoo artist working over at Tru Blu Tatoo, 247 Mill Street in Bristol, PA (if anyone is looking for some new ink).

Russ, our drummer, has been with us for about 5 months or so. He brings his unique style and rhythms with him on either a kit or hand drums providing solid beats that I’m sure move any crowd. Long story short, Russ was the original pick for who we wanted for a drummer over four years ago when this band formed. We luckily ran into him not to long back by coincidence and invited him out to check us out. He dug the sounds and decided to hop on board, as it seems it was suppose to be.

So yeah, we are all having a great time learning old music and developing new music and feeding off of each others talents and vibe. Stay tuned for more pics and new tunes coming soon… here is a picture of the full band… (Liz and Jimmy included…)

Fire Blue Sun live @ the Raven…

fireblue — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 16:05:29 +0000

Liz and I met up to grab some drinks in the city and scouted out this open mike night. We had a lot of fun for a last minute, unplanned gig and got the chance to jam some tunes for the bar. We played Runaway, Chasing the Dragon, Spiral Ledge and Glad. We also got the chance to meet some new friends at the bar in the back, and even ran into some musician friends we met from playing up at John and Peter’s in New Hope. Thanks all, for the positive feedback and support.

Yo- We’re Looking for a bassist!!!

fireblue — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 22:26:37 +0000

Fire Blue Sun snuck out to the Mugs (211 S. Main Street, Doylestown) open mike this past Thurs. It was our first time jamming live @ Mugs, and it was a great crowd and a warm response. Our new drummer, Russ Gale, and a newly found friend from the bar were keeping the beats tight, and we blew through a great set that included Chasing the Dragon, Spiral Ledge, Runaway, But I know, and Home. We’d like to thank all who came out for support, and all those who were feeling the vibe. Special thanks go out to Vikki from Hipnosis Tribal Belly Dance for snapping the pictures.
