About Me

Basically, Fenson began when Marc (drummer) dared me to give a CD of home recordings I had made to someone at Lost Soul's in downtown L.A. just to see if they'd ask us to play. When I checked back they said they had the CD in their rotation and booked us. After the show we began to re-form the band, and continue to rework the songs. The songs on this site are some of the home recordings as they were presented to the band that started everything moving, as well as new demos which will be switched out regularly. As of right now I don't think I'll be putting any proper studio recordings up. Cuz, I kind of like the idea of you having to see us to hear us electric, and as demos the songs won't be colored by us,... no tricks,... no genres,... just honest..........
