For Immediate Release:
Fiction Plane’s PARADISO Live Album Now Available on iTunes!
Previously Unavailable Music Also Available for Download
Fiction Plane fans rejoice! The band’s recent live album PARADISO, which had previously only been available in Europe, is now accessible via iTunes!
That’s correct; you can download the audio content to Fiction Plane’s most exciting live performance, regardless of territory. Simply click on this link, and you can have access to the full 14-song set!
Recorded on December 7, 2008 at the band’s sold-out performance in Amsterdam at the renowned Paradiso, the threesome of Joe Sumner, Seton Daunt, and Pete Wilhoit were captured in top form. Known for their highly animated and energetic live performances, PARADISO is the purest representation of Fiction Plane outside of an actual live show. As Sumner attests, “I’ve never liked live albums that were faked.” When we play live, it is not a recital of our live recordings. We do everything we can to put on the best show for the crowd every night.”
A video clip for “It’s A Lie” from PARADISO is viewable here.
In related news, on April 7, two additional Fiction Plane rarities will become available for download. Amazon.com and iTunes will be releasing the full 13-minute version of “Put On Your Shoes” (which was previously only available as a Japanese bonus track on 2007’s LEFT SIDE OF THE BRAIN album), and a brand new acoustic version of the fan-favorite song, “Anyone”.
Already available on iTunes outside of America, this new, enchanting rendition of “Anyone” was recorded in Bloomington, IN (the hometown of Fiction Plane drummer Pete Wilhoit) just prior to the band’s final US headline performance of 2008 at The Bluebird. Recorded with two guitars, drums, and an antique organ, the band created a very minimalistic but heavily emotional version of the song. Fiction Plane recorded “Anyone” with producer/engineer Dave Weber (who had worked with Wilhoit on releases prior to joining Fiction Plane) and mixer Ash Howes (Kylie Minogue, James Morrison, Eurythmics).
Photos from the recording sessions are available at guitarist Seton Daunt’s official website.
Fiction Plane is currently in the studio recording its brand new full-length album for release later this year. Upcoming tour dates include:
June 26 - Les Festiv'ete Musicales in Les Moutiers Sous Chantemerle, FRANCE
July 2 - Musiques en Stock Festival in Cluses, FRANCE
July 9 - Les Enfants du Rock in Nice, FRANCE
July 11 - Festival des Terres Blanches in Guérande, FRANCE
July 12 - Bospop in Weert, NETHERLANDS
July 16 - Les Vielles Charrues Festival in Carhaix, FRANCE
Stay tuned for more exciting news from the world of Fiction Plane!
