New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Portland, OR's Fruition released a new album Watching It All Fall Apart via LoHi Records at the top of February. The band has toured extensively across the US in support and are just about to wrap up a very successful run of dates with
Jack Johnson with two more shows, one tonight at the Tuscaloosa Amphitheater and a sold out show at Nashville's Ascend Amphitheater on Wednesday, May 1st. Stream and embed Watching It All Fall Apart via Spotify:

Fruition joined
Jack Johnson each night on the tour for his songs "
Big Sur" and "Breakdown."
Houston Press said "If you didn't get to the show early, you missed a nice and unexpected treat in Fruition. You may have been kicking yourself when they joined Johnson (who was on the uke!) for a rousing version of 'Breakdown.'"
Fruition were such a big hit that Jack invited the band for an unexpected sit-in during his set at the New Orleans Jazz Festival this past weekend. Getting the call just two hours before showtime and being in the midst of a long drive from Dallas, TX to New Orleans, it was only thanks to a little luck, a lead foot, and help from the extraordinary staff at NOLA Jazz Fest that they were able to make it happen. Ben Elman from Galactic also joined in on the set.
Returning the favor, Zach Gill from Jack's band and ALO came to Fruition's late night set at the House of Blues, where he sat in on his own tune "Handy Man" and Tom Petty's "Runnin' Down A Dream."
The band wraps up their own headlining tour this week with shows in
Alabama and Georgia. They'll continue throughout the spring and summer with plenty of festivals and a night at Red Rocks Amphitheatre opening for Railroad Earth on August 18th. A Fall tour announcement is coming soon.
