Out of this formed the Fireflies, a band made up of five students which performed Jessie' original songs. The Fireflies were together for a year and did some outstanding work, such as local concerts and events, Perth Royal Show, festivals and support act for Archie Roach. They also appeared on RTRfm and performed an acoustic version on two of their songs. The Fireflies then completed a CD which was released at their launch on December the 12th 2002.
