  • Bio

    .. .. .... .... .... .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... "Lasting Echo, the second full-length album from the Utah band Fictionist, is full of friendly pop-rock features and layered instrumentation marked by Wilco-esque guitars. The songs range from shimmering, quiet ballads (“Have Mercy”) to anthemic speaker-blowers (“Well Made Shadow”), and while the lyrical sentiments may be straightforward, the music itself is not. It winds through classic rock guitar riffs, prog-rock arrangements sparkling pianos and intricate rhythms, building up and breaking down like an ever-moving nomad across the album as a whole—even within individual songs." — Paste Magazine .... “[Fictionist is] big music, with a wall of sound of epic, swirling choruses and bridges that build on one another — think of the way Led Zeppelin builds momentum slowly on “Stairway to Heaven” until it erupts in the final verse, destroying everything in sight.” – Salt Lake Tribune .... “Simply put, Fictionist is one of the best bands I’ve ever heard.” - St. George Spectrum .... “I found [Fictionist] to be extremely talented, poised, and armed with intense, sophisticated, cerebral pop songs.” – David Bash, Founder/CEO The International Pop Overthrow Music Festival .... “A glorious wall of post-pop ecstasy…a high-energy vocal romp that stands up to the best modern indie music…” – HitSession.com .... “I consider it an act of extreme good luck that I got to see this band because they’re pretty amazing….” – Ronatron.net .... “Simultaneously energetic and introspective, [Fictionist] nourishes the ears & the soul with attentive songwriting and beautifully crafted musicianship.” – WSCS 90.0FM .... “The sum of all the parts is grand, but it’s never busy or overwhelming, and the same can be said for the rest of the record. These songs are mapped out exquisitely, with each player knowing his role, whether it be in a rhythmic vamp or a death-defying solo.” – CD Baby .... “[Fictionist is] my new favorite local band and literally, probably the most talented band I’ve ever heard in Salt Lake.” – Jon Tueller, Graywhale Music
