Highwire Fiction [NEW SONGS UP NOW!]

About Me

Any good work of fiction includes enough truth to be believable.
Highwire Fiction, based in Phoenix, AZ, calls upon more than the classic rock 'n roll formula to portray the life experiences of its members. While often compared to piano rockers the Fray and Coldplay, the band differentiates itself with raspy vocals and methodical melodies set against hard-driving, groove-laden drumbeats and bass riffs. While the subject matter of Highwire Fictionâ€™s songs varies in both tone and urgency, the storylines explore everything from heartbreak to hangovers to time travel.
Building on their success from a series of live performances at Sugar Daddy's Bar and Grill in Scottsdale, Highwire Fiction sought to substantiate their local presence and capitalize on the overwhelming response. By continuing to hone their live act at some of the most popular venues in Scottsdale and Tempe, a following emerged, eager to hear more. Aside from being featured in Tempe's GetOut! magazine in February of 2007, the band has headlined Martini Ranch's SLAM (Support Local Artists and Music), and was selected from hundreds of local bands to share a bill with national touring act the Samples at Last Exit in Tempe.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 07/07/2006
Band Website: www.highwirefiction.com
Band Members:

Influences: Heartless ex's, The Three Wise Men: Jim, Jack, and Jose, leftover teen angst, specials on 12 and 18 packs of Miller Lite, and a lack of good television.
Sounds Like: If the Fray had a girlfriend, and that girlfriend cheated on him, he would probably pop four valiums and go drown his sorrows in a fifth of Jim Beam at a dimly lit blues bar up the street from his house. Gomez would be tending bar, serving stiff gin and vodka cocktails and speaking with a muffled british accent, and Snow Patrol would be sitting two stools away. Pearl Jam's "ten" would be echoing quietly from the jukebox in the corner, and Manu Chao would stumble in, order a Belgian beer that no one had heard of, and buy a round of tequila shots for everyone in the bar. A raucous party would ensue, and in the morning, the various bar patrons would wake up feeling hungover yet satisfied that they had sufficiently... pumped it up.
Type of Label: Major
