Biography

Washington DC, United States (2002 – present)

Sprites was formed in Washington DC in 2002 by Jason Korzen (along with his wife, Amy Korzen) following the breakup of Barcelona.

Korzen’s frustration with the difficulties of being in a band led to the dissolution of Barcelona, and as a result, Sprites has an ever-changing line-up. Participants include Christian Scanniello, Ivan Ramiscal, Kevin Alvir, Armin Pruessner, Derek Strausbaugh, and Reid Dossinger, with only Jason and Amy remaining as constant members.

The band released Starling, Spiders, Tiger and Sprites in 2003 on March Records, the EP Bionic Hands in 2004 through the Spanish label Lejos Discsos and their second album titled Modern Gameplay was released in 2006 through the Darla Records label.

    It is an absolute sin the Sprites don't have more plays than this. Bionic Hands and Starling, Spiders, Tiger and Sprites are perfect.

    My favourite band right now. What would it take to get them to play England, d'you think? Divine intervention?

    <3 'i started a blog nobody read' is a song that would appeal to any 21st century blogger that knows the pain of writing for the world, but never having any one in the world actually read it.
