The Superions are an American comedy synthpop band formed in Orlando, Florida in 2006 as a side project of the B-52s frontman Fred Schneider with Noah Brodie and Dan Marshall.
[1] The band, originally named the Del Morons, was founded in 2006 by Fred Schneider and friends Noah Brodie and Dan Marshall.
[2] Schneider first met Brodie and Marshall, vinyl nuts like him, in 2002 through a mutual friend who has a record store in Orlando, Florida.
[3] Eventually, whenever in Orlando, Schneider began staying with Brodie and Marshall at their home and turned them on to lounge and tiki music.
Schneider came up with the lyrics for "Totally Nude Island" off the top of his head and, because of Brodie and Marshall's noisy pet azure lovebird, Mr. Bird, recorded the vocals in the bathroom in two takes.
[7] A deal was hatched and it was decided to do a full EP release with the addition of two reworked songs from The Del Morons period, "Those Sexy Saucer Gals" and "Who Threw That Ham at Me", and remixes by the Lolligags, Casper & The Cookies and Marshmallow Coast.
From April until June 2010, the Superions held a remix contest for their song "Those Sexy Saucer Gals", the Swedish band WeHaveLove was chosen as the winner and "Those Sexy Saucer Gals (WeHaveLove Remix)" was released as a digital single on August 24, 2010, and the video by Tom Yaz was released on YouTube on August 27, 2010.
