Gump Fiction

It all started one rainy evening in October 2012, when bassist Ken Shufelt and singer Nick Loder met via an ad online to discuss forming a cover band that plays strictly 90's music. Upon feeling relieved that the meetup didn't involve either a serial killer or Chris Hansen, Loder and Shulfelt agreed that given the abundance of 80's cover bands, it was time for the Gen X and Gen Y kids to get represented. A few months later the band took shape with guitarist Dan Bonfili, percusionist Will Ellis, and singer Natalie Morris. After countless mass texts, emails, spreadsheets, that's-what-she-said's, and heated discussions over beer and barbecue at Mac's Speed Shop, the name Gump Fiction was chosen, along with a clear statement of the band's direction: recreate the nostalgia of the days of tamagotchi pets, TRL, slap bracelets, cloned sheep, flannel, and the soup nazi through kickass-spot-on 90's covers. Today, Gump Fiction wants to provide entertainment for your event or venue. They are prepared to perform a live and electric show, complete with a full PA system, or an unplugged acoustic AOL Sessions style set with or without PA. Check out their playist and drop them a line or email booking@gumpfiction.com if you are interested in booking Gump Fiction, the Carolina's ultimate 90's experience!
