Diane Coffee

Diane Coffee (born Shaun Fleming) is a musician and actor from Agoura Hills, California, United States. He is best known for being the live drummer for schoolmates Sam France and Jonathan Rado's band, Foxygen. Diane Coffee released his debut LP My Friend Fish on October 29, 2013, via record label Western Vinyl.

History

Fleming, a former Disney voice actor for shows like Kim Possible, met Jonathan Rado and Sam France of Foxygen while attending Agoura High School in Southern California. Following Foxygen's debut album Take the Kids Off Broadway, Fleming became the live drummer.

In late 2012, Fleming left Agoura Hills for New York. Fleming began writing and recording what would become the debut Diane Coffee LP My Friend Fish. Though his means were limited (recording a makeshift drum set with his iPhone voice memo app, using detuned guitars in lieu of a bass), he was able to complete the album in just shy of two weeks.

The live band behind the 2013-2014 My Friend Fish tours usually consisted of Joey Lefitz on drums, Jared Walker on guitar, Emily Panic on bass, and Steve Okonski on Keys. One 2014 tour featured Spencer Klein on drums.
