too much fiction is the result of years of collaboration between guitarist Kevin Collins and drummer Pat Stanley. Since 1993, this duo has remained the tight nucleus at the center of a seemingly ever-evolving rotation of talented musicians. Their partnership has led the band through various phases, at times more pop, jazz, alternative or rock, all the while staying true to their vision of what defines good music and a good band. Kevin and Pat have once again put together a new version of the band as a vehicle to showcase their music.
In addition to Kevin and Pat, too much fiction also features Ron VanH (previously of Sacramento's FaultZone) on electric and acoustic guitar and spunky and talented new vocalist Camille Neilson!
New bassist Fred Schmidt brings his sophisticated stylings to the mix. He has been a member of too much fiction several times in the past (as well as time in the Bay Area's The Junes and Vacaville's A Prelude To A Tragedy).
too much fiction perform all original material that has been described as jazzy, alternative modern-rock. The music has been compared to bands ranging from Sarah McLachlan to The Police to Missing Persons to The Sundays, and each member brings a wide, diverse range of influences to the mix.
The Sacramento-based band brings elements of both old and new music, incorporates electric and acoustic guitars, guitar synthesizers, electronic and acoustic drums, samples and other interesting tidbits. The band has forged a unique and identifiable sound that can only be described as too much fiction.
