GREENWAY RECORDS


Fruit Tones is a rock and roll band from Manchester. Nothing artificial - this is the real deal. Real music played by real people for real reasons. No budget. No gimmicks. No nothing. We’re talking one steam-rolling-mondo-garage thud here folks! Stomping drums, choogling guitars, the vocals bite. They’re the kind of guys The Shangri-La’s sing about - true professional amateurs!
Recorded over three freezing cold December days in an old Manchester cotton mill by Samuel Stacpoole (Holiday Ghosts / The Black Tambourines), it’s all here - the sass of The Dolls, the fizz of Four Loco, the Stones-esque looseness, juiced into 14 tracks knocked out in just over 30 minutes.
There’s no lies in there - the rough and ready, impromptu nature of their work serves to let out something raw and primal rather than strive for tech accuracy. True rock & roll takes the mundane and turns it into something exotic, this is what Fruit Tones do well - they don’t pretend you’ve never heard rock & roll music before, they remind you why you need it in your life.

STAFF COMMENTS
Matt says: If you're feeling the need for some wholesome, honest rock n roll - with the wind in your hair and the accelerator down hard, then look no further than Fruit Tones - Manchester's latest addition to rock n roll's legacy. These young chaps are quite the musicians, knocking out inspired riffs and solos like it ain't no thing! The vocals are authentic, garage-rock howlers with tons of energy. Yes mate.TRACK LISTING
