Fruit Bats’ Eric D. Johnson Chats With The St. Albert Gazette

The St. Albert Gazette has a feature on Eric D. Johnson in advance of his Fruit Bats performance in St. Albert, Alberta next week. According to the feature, Johnson describes his songwriting process as “a collage of fragments that slowly form complete songs. Songs often start with a single line, image, or melody, then grow organically as he develops them. ‘Every song surprises me… I don’t have the musical brain where it comes out exactly as I heard it in my head. That’s part of the fun.'” Read more here.
