about us
TooMuchFiction is the result of years of collaboration between guitarist
Kevin Collins and drummer
Pat Stanley. Since 1993, this duo has remained the
tight nucleus at the center of a seemingly ever-evolving rotation of talented musicians. Their partnership has
led the band through various phases, at times more pop, jazz, alternative or rock, all the while staying
true to their vision of what defines good music and a good band. Kevin and Pat have once again put together a
new version of the band as a vehicle to showcase their music.
In addition to Kevin and Pat, TooMuchFiction also features
Ron VanH on electric and acoustic guitar, and bassist
Jeff Vertido.
TooMuchFiction is very happy to announce our awesome new singer,
Tossa! She's a great singer, and is busily learning all of our songs.
TooMuchFiction perform all original material that has been described as jazzy,
alternative modern-rock. The music has been compared to bands ranging from Sarah McLachlan to The Police to
Missing Persons to The Sundays, and each member brings a wide, diverse range of influences to the mix.
The Sacramento-based band brings elements of both old and new music, incorporates electric and acoustic
guitars, guitar synthesizers, electronic and acoustic drums, samples and other interesting tidbits.
The band has forged a unique and identifiable sound that can only be described as
TooMuchFiction.
