Future Bible Heroes has its roots in the Boston club music scene where Merritt and Ewen met in their 20’s, forming a bond through their mutual love of chanteuse Yma Sumac, composer John Cage, and the collecting of exotic instruments and Tiki art. After many years of friendship and musical rapport, the two, joined by vocalist Claudia Gonson, have released three albums, Memories of Love (1998), Eternal Youth (2002), and Partygoing (2013), plus three EP's; I'm Lonely (and I Love It), Lonely Days, and The Lonely Robot.
