ARTIST BIO
FLY is an all-male contemporary dance company from Houston, Texas known for its high-energy performances with clever staging to a variety of music, including classical, jazz, pop, hip-hop, experimental, drumming and live sound effects.
Labeled an artistic phenomenon, FLY crosses street dance with classical choreographic principles. Their technique is hip hop—very creative, gymnastic, and highly masculine. FLY’s concerts are clean-cut, wholesome artistry designed to cross all audience boundaries—young and old, men and women, sophisticated and unsophisticated—with pieces combining styles and cultures to reflect contemporary Americana.
FLY is currently collaborating with hip-hop icon Rennie Harris, who says he has been a fan of FLY Dance Company for over 10 years: “They understand the true essence of Hip-hop Dance Theater. Their work bridges worlds, promotes harmony of cultures. Committed to the preservation and dissemination of Street Dance culture, ‘The Sons of Texas’ my AKAfor FLY Dance Company has made an everlasting mark on the world.“
In September 2014, FLY was named one of "15 Signs that Contemporary Dance is Alive and Well in Texas" by Arts+Culture magazine.
