Naked Fiction

Naked Fiction is a 7 piece San Francisco based chamber-rock band. The group makes music that is sassy and sophisticated without preciousness or pretense; organic and natural yet polished and urbane. Think clever, artfully-arranged, hook-driven pop tunes, shaped and driven by a power trio of drums (Derrik Sakima), bass (Bob Todd), and guitar (Thomas Kenny); colored with a broad palette of violin (Yuri Kye), viola (Ivy Zenobi), and piano (Daniel Highman); and breathed into life through the seductive voice of a fetching femme-fatale (Carmen King). The separate parts combine to paint vivid pictures. The music is unequivocally sexy, dangerously so. Think Portishead, but less depressing, Andrew Bird, but with more estrogen, or Mad Men, but with less nicotine.
