Fireships, the folk indie band from Brooklyn, are New York’s latest export. The group has already acquired a sizable following, and their newly released self-titled debut album has been highly anticipated. Each song on the album tells a detailed story of heartache or frustration. With lyrics like, “Your sad heart haunts/Your stoned soul wants,” from the track “Fantasy,” you’ll find yourself paying extra attention to every sentence in each song as you listen. Fireships will be playing at Rough Trade in Brooklyn on April 25 and the North Star Bar in Philadelphia on May 2.
