The Downtown Fiction Biography

The Downtown Fiction is an American pop-punk band from Fairfax, Virginia signed to Photo Finish Records, a division of Atlantic Records. After two EPs, the band's first studio album, Let's Be Animals was released on April 25, 2011.

"The Downtown Fiction" is inspired by the film "Pulp Fiction," a favorite film of Cameron and Eric, two band members. The Downtown Fiction toured for a year, and were soon signed to Photo Finish Records, an independent New York record label. They were a part of the Bamboozle Road Show 2010 and the Warped Tour 2010, and the “100 Bands You Need To Know” issue of Alternative Press Magazine. A self-titled EP by the band was released in March 2009, featuring a few of their rising hit songs, including "Is Anybody Out There?" and "Living Proof." This EP was succeeded by an additional EP a year later in March 2010 called Best I Never Had.

In August 2010, the band premiered their first music video for the single "I Just Wanna Run." It is their most popular song and is the first radio single for their first album Let's Be Animals. The Downtown Fiction released their third EP entitled The Double E.P, which incorporates all of their preceding EP's tracks, and a rough demo song called "Keep On Moving." In late February 2011, the band began The Glamour Kills Tour which featured The Ready Set as the headliner, along with Allstar Weekend, We Are The In Crowd and briefly Marianas Trench.

In early April, the band's first single for their debut album premiered, entitled "Thanks For Nothing." In late April 2011, "Let's Be Animals," the band's first full-length studio album was released.

The Downtown Fiction released their fourth EP, Pineapple EP, on December 20, 2011.

In September 2013, the band signed with Fearless Records. The video for their single, "Some Place On Earth," debuted December 18, 2013 on VEVO, which appeared later on their new record, "Losers and Kings," released June 17, 2014.
