Blip Blip Bleep began as the solo project of New York-based songwriter Sean Han, who started recording under the name in 2006. Blip Blip Bleep's debut EP, Wireless, was released before the year was out, and Han, having recruited the help of drummer Brett Thompson, started performing live at various venues in and around New York City by the time 2007 rolled around. The second Blip Blip Bleep EP - Alarm Clock, Snooze Bar, Get Up - a dancy, electronic affair punctuated by earnest vocals was released in the spring of 2008. Vocalist/keyboardist Alexa Danner was welcomed into the fold soon after, and the trio is planning to put out a full length album in early 2010.
