"When She's Near" is the first single from the Jon Foreman/Sean Watkins collaboration Fiction Family's debut eponymous album.
The song was first heard in early performances by Fiction Family, who still went by the name The Real SeanJon at the time.
[2] The finalized studio version was posted on the duo's Myspace on October 7, 2008,[3] and was later made available for free download on the band's website.
[6] Fiction Family shot a music video for the song on October 15, 2008.
Watkins said on their Myspace blog,"I won't say too much about it 'cause I don't want to spoil the plot and ruin it for you but I will say it involved me taped to and pushed around in a dolly and Jon being carried around like some Biblical king in transit for hours on end.
