history
founding
The San Cisco members attended the same high school in Fremantle. Singer and guitarist Davieson and drummer Stevens had known each other since early childhood and were former members of the rock groups "The Real Life Animators" and "The Flairz"; Biondillo and Davieson shared a common interest in skateboarding and music. Stevens is the daughter of Phil Stevens, who founded the Jarrah Records label with John Butler Trio and The Waifs, two bands also managed by Phil Stevens . Biondillo stated that he started playing guitar in high school when he was around eight or nine years old, but played mostly by himself in his room until he met Davieson.
In late 2009, Davieson, Stevens and Biondillo began playing music together; later the bassist Gardner also joined them. The band changed their original name "King George" to "San Cisco" on the advice of friends and fans. According to the band, there is no connection between the city of San Francisco and its name. They have chosen the name "San Cisco" because it means nothing and offers them a wide range of design options with regard to their content.
