About Fiction Fair
Riverton, NJ
"Fiction Fair's (formerly Skyfall) beginnings date back to 2004, when singer/guitarist Ryan Asher and drummer Tom Szy started performing at coffeehouses as an acoustic duo. After the eventual addition of bassist/singer Darren McGuire, they introduced an intricate brand of pop songcraft on their six-song debut EP, “Scenes”. Fiction Fair’s music often sounds rooted in classic and modern Brit-pop; anchored by ornate yet catchy melodies fleshed out with detailed arrangements, relaxed vocals and tight, layered harmonies. The group tops their sound with soul-searching lyrics examining life’s ups and downs, and learning life lessons along the way...clever pop songsmiths with focus and a sense of adventure; this set provides enough of a teaser to make listeners eager to hear more."
