happy, livid, super sad, loud, soft, but never quiet. experimental post punk post rock mildly metal shoegazey kinda dark wave noise rock alternative rock. not really accessible; an acquired taste maybe; sit-down-and-pay-attention music. every single song ever made and shared here is essentially, intentionally, and without shame: "wait for it". like I said, experimental and shit. sometimes even fever-dream pop.

I couldn't figure out what instrument I wanted to play, so I chose them all. These tunes are bits and pieces of my personal work. I try to incorporate all my styles and musical tastes into everything I do. Feel free to leave comments and help me pave the path to something better. I appreciate all feedback!

Chord Fiction is an indie-folk project that stems from the mind and heart of David Salazar, a singer/songwriter in the SF bay area. 

The music he creates in his new act echoes the soft and understated melodies of artists the likes of Glen Hansard, Jack Johnson, or Damien Rice. Still, it also feels as forward-thinking as indie-folk heroes the likes of The Shins, Wilco, or Calexico.

Chord Fiction sets out to create a mellow, organic, and soothing set of sonic landscapes, with every song relying on David Salazar's earnest vocals and gentle acoustic/electric guitar lines.  

Chord Fiction's upcoming EP features the on-point and often understated roots-inspired lead guitar from David Tom, and the track "Life is a just a Sea" also features the exceptional vocal talent of Emma Varley.
