The New York City power pop group Lava Baby initially started out as a bond between childhood friends Robyn Celia (vocals/guitar) and Miss (Andrea) Brown (drums). The two loved pop and rock music, even The Carpenters, yea really. Many influences and fun times, one day it was decided they too, might want to make their own pop, rock & roll. 

They shifted their daily lives in 1998 with Celia's sister and then keyboardist, Jen. The band focused on making music that became "alterna-pop", a mix of poppy, catchy tunes with riffs ala '80s/90's grooves. 
Joined by guitarist Marc and bassist Tony who completed the lineup in time for a 1999 "cheeky" debut, In the Right Place. 
Publications like Village Voice and Billboard praised Lava Baby early one but Jen Celia didn't stick around to enjoy those accolades and left shortly after its release along with her new hubby bassist Tony.
Along came new members Jen Salzman and Peter Cole as added and Lava Baby continued its East Coast reign around the smaller clubs. A year later, a new record was done and shopping for a recording deal, then, Big Muff was released. later picked up by an indy label with a refined and remastered version of Big Muff, for their label release. 

Lave Baby music LIVES on and still, in 2025.
