About the artist

Fruit Bats

FRUIT BATS By the time FRUIT BATS hit the scene, the indie folk landscape was already saturated with bearded troubadours armed with nothing but an acoustic guitar and a heart full of feelings. But Eric D. Johnson, the mastermind behind this enigmatic project, brought something refreshingly different to the table. With a sound that effortlessly blends Americana, indie pop, and a touch of psychedelic whimsy, FRUIT BATS have carved out their own niche in the crowded music world. Johnson's distinctive vocals float effortlessly over lush arrangements, creating a sonic tapestry that is both comforting and exhilarating. Whether he's crooning about love lost, spiritual enlightenment, or the joys of a simple Sunday afternoon, there's an undeniable honesty to his songwriting that is hard to resist. But don't let the pastoral imagery fool you - FRUIT BATS aren't afraid to get a little weird. Their live shows are a testament to their playful spirit, featuring everything from impromptu cover songs to bizarre on-stage banter. Johnson's magnetic stage presence and quirky sense of humour make for an unforgettable concert experience that is equal parts intimate and absurd. With a discography that spans over two decades, FRUIT BATS have solidified their status as indie darlings and critical darlings alike. They may not be headlining arenas or topping the charts, but their music has a staying power that is undeniable. So whether you're a die-hard fan or a casual listener, it's time to hop on the FRUIT BATS bandwagon - trust us, you won't be disappointed.
