Fiction Family to Play at Anthology
Tuesday, December 9, 2008 8:43
Fiction Family is Sean Watkins of Nickel Creek and Jon Foreman of Switchfoot. From their MySpace page:
“The wait is nearly over. Fiction Family’s debut record is eponymous and upon us….. relatively, being that we’ve been threatening to release it for the last couple years.
Fiction Family is myself (Sean Watkins) and Jon Foreman (Switchfoot) and we’ve been working on a record together for the last three years. Unofficially we met maybe 12 years ago, in the parking lot of Off Shore Surf Shop in Carlsbad, CA. We both had just gotten out of the water and were introduced by a mutual friend who wanted us to meet cause we were musicians….we shook hands and gave each other a smile that said…”sure you’re in a band, aren’t we all?” But officially, we met backstage at a music festival in downtown San Diego called Street Scene. Nickel Creek and Switchfoot were playing one after another.”
Fiction Family will play at Anthology on February 6, 2009
