BBC Radio 6 Music - Marc Riley, Fiction

London band Fiction are in session. They're just back from SXSW so Marc can't wait to hear all the gossip from over there.

Tonight's band. Fiction, formed in London in 2009 and they're not travelling far because the session's from London too! They're just back from SXSW so we can't wait to hear all the gossip from over there.

The band is Mike Barrett (vocals, keys, drums), James Howard (vocals, guitars, drums), David Miller (vocals, bass) and Nick Barrett (guitars).

They have recently toured with Warpaint, Klaxons and Metronomy and have released three singles to date: Curiosity, Big Things and Parakeets. They signed to Moshi Moshi/Co-Op in November 2011 and will release their debut album in June 2012.

They've worked with producers James Ford (Arctic Monkeys, Florence and The Machine, Simian Mobile Disco), Ash Workman (Metronomy, Summer Camp), and mixing engineer David Bascombe (Echo & the Bunnymen, Depeche Mode). So it's bound to be a cracker with pedigrees like that!
