Jeff and Daniel Greene officially launched The Butterflies of Love in New Haven, Connecticut, USA, on March 15, 1994, under the name The Silver Bug.

With a six-piece avant-garde improvisational jazz band backing their efforts, Jeff and Daniel spent the harvest season on New England’s agricultural fair circuit. Garnering a motley collection of fans but completely exhausting their budget, The Super-Sonic Daredevils of Show Business disbanded at the end of 1994. Jeff and Daniel regrouped as stripped down two-piece The Butterflies of Love and hastily recorded an album in the living room they shared during the spring of 1995, America’s Newest Hit Makers.

    Act Deranged is soooo wonderful, the same for In a Blizzard in a lighthouse. I was amazed by the low number of listeners here.

    How come more people don't listen to this band? Seriously ... they're The Go-Betweens of the 21st century. (I even own America's Newest Hitmakers, the debut album even they don't acknowledge.)
