New York (Top40 Charts/ Shark Attack Media) - When not writing, in the studio, or doing session work individually, the band can always be found out on the road, performing at amazing massive concert events and intimate clubs alike. Fiction Plane is nothing if not committed to making sure their music is heard.
This summer is no different. Already on the books are dates with such renowned and diverse acts as The Killers, Bruce Springsteen, Chickenfoot, Tesla, Jeff Beck, The New York Dolls, Beth Hart, and Morcheeba!
Fiction Plane has just announced two more special performances to add into the mix.
On July 10, they will be performing an intimate acoustic headline performance at The Klimt Bar in La Baule, France. And on July 13, Fiction Plane is scheduled to perform at Neumu"nster Abbey in Luxembourg City, Luxembourg, in direct support of bluesy songbird Joss Stone.
Fiction Plane features singer/bassist Joe Sumner (son of rock icon Sting), guitarist Seton Daunt, and American drummer Pete Wilhoit.
Says Pete Wilhoit (who was recently voted one of the top 'Up-And-Coming Drummers' in the 2009 Modern Drummer Magazine Reader's Poll) of Fiction Plane's summer activities, 'The band is gearing up for all the upcoming summer fun! We enjoy the festival season, and this one is going to quite special. We are looking forward to sharing the stage with some amazing artists such as The Killers, guitar legend Jeff Beck, Joss Stone, and of course Bruce Springsteen. We know that The Boss is a big fan of FP, so we are fully expecting him to be front row getting his groove-rock on!'
Having recently recorded and mixed their forthcoming third full-length album with legendary producer Paul Corkett (The Cure, Nick Cave, Bjo"rk, Tori Amos), Fiction Plane is ready to go out and give their fans a chance to hear some of the new material before it hits the stores.
