Superfly Idiot Guy is the electronica/alternative pop project from singer songwriter Jonny Keeley. Jonny is the lead singer of British indie band Fight The Bear. Born in April 1985 he grew up learning to play music by ear on various hand me down keyboards and organs which eventually led to him picking up his dads guitar. At the age of fifteen he started recording songs on his neighbours four track tape recorder. Graduating to a computer a few years later, he started to develop a taste for heavily layered vocals and multi track recording. He then taught himself to play drums by necessity.
