If you’re a fan of indie rock’s recent past, then you’re familiar with the work of guitarist and singer/songwriter Ryan Ferguson.. Ferguson has been a lynchpin of the San Diego music community since his high school days. However, he first came to international attention with his band No Knife beginning in 1995. The seminal Southern California band toured throughout the world with prominent rock acts such as Jimmy Eat World, Cursive and Sunny Day Real Estate. Influencing many burgeoning artists of the time, No Knife earned four San Diego Music Awards before their untimely break up in 2003.
Going solo, Ferguson issued the acoustic based Three, Four in 2005. Self-released and supported by a U.S. tour with Switchfoot, the five-song EP sold thousands of copies through mailorder and touring. The album’s lead track, Suddenly, was interpreted for The Sims 2 (Electronic Arts) and swiftly added into regular rotation at San Diego’s trendsetting 91X and Indie 103.1 Los Angeles. This time he scored a San Diego Music Award for ‘Best Pop Album’, with a tight collection of songs that set the bar even higher for future CDs.

Hey man, just wanted to say great show this past weekend. Luckily had the opportunity to visit old friends out west & make it to the legendary Casbah. Have caught a few shows over the yrs & this was definitely one of your best. A louder & faster No Knife than i remember from back in the day, which was great. Was cool to hear some of the older tunes too. Much continued success to you & the band.

Hey - were you at the Halloween party? I didnt see you, but I didnt recognize ANYONE. Except Don. He was a "security gaurd". :) ~ If you didnt go, you missed a killer set-up - the stage and lighting kicked ass. The acoustics out there in BFE are pretty good too. ~ PS: Me & Joe want to come to one of your shows coming up. Seriously.
