TapeOp Compares Fruit Bats To Nick Drake

Geoff Stanfield of TapeOp recently reviewed Baby Man, the newest LP from Fruit Bats that is at radio now from Merge Records. Stanfield writes, “Intimate recordings of acoustic guitar or acoustic piano bring the songs on Baby Man to the listener as if you are sitting in the room. In some ways, it reminds me of Nick Drake records; rich, dark, smooth tones, and minimal vocal processing provide a direct line from the artist to the ears of the audience. Add Baby Man to the list of Sunday morning listens or long desert drives at dusk.” Read more here.
