Fruition

Fruition originally took shape less than 24 hours after its founding members were introduced in 2008 and has since drawn crowds at hundreds of performances in more than a dozen states with a focus on the West coast. Its tours (and detours) are a mix of spontaneous street concerts, rowdy saloon hoedowns and all-night house parties. The band has played nearly every major venue in Portland, as well at the Tractor Tavern in Seattle, Great American Music Hall in San Francisco, the Mystic Theater in Petaluma, as well as the Oregon Brewer’s Fest, and headlining the late night stage at Northwest String Summit Friday and Saturday night of 2011. During these shows and festivals, Fruition has had the opportunity to jam with musicians such as Vince Herman and Andy Thorne (Leftover Salmon), Jeff Austin (Yonder Mountain String Band), Zach Gill and Dan Lebowitz (ALO & Jack Johnson), Daniel Stern, and Danny Barnes. Fruition continues to graciously host stages with the likes of Hot Buttered Rum, Greensky Bluegrass, Elephant Revival, Watertower Bucket Boys, the Quick & Easy Boys, the Clumsy Lovers, Dead Winter Carpenters and more. Members of Fruition have also collaborated on Portland-based recording projects such as The Villains, The BellBoys, and the upcoming LP, Fruition and Brad Parsons, Hole Hearted Fools, to be released and toured in the Fall of 2012.
