Debuting in their native San Francisco, Maxiwagon quickly established themselves in the surrounding indie pop environment. With their fuse of jumpy, punk guitar riffs backed by a flow of bouncy indie pop, the lineup of Dave Bergman (vocals/guitar), Janna (bass), and Frank (drums) eventually caught the attention of Omnibus Records in 1999. That same year, Maxiwagon eventually released their first album, Call in Sick.
