   About Jackfruit


“Mary Mother of God is that for real?” might be what you’d say if you watched a group of nuns playing skeetball with grapes and penny loafers. But after hearing the simple wizardry of four young slingers enchanting you with the right solution of monster bass lines, smooth, molten piano rolls and a slap of supple drum beats, it’s the only response. With an eclectic musical style and maelstrom of motormouth lyrics Jackfruit has broken ties from genres and classifications creating their own unique bricolage too mind-blowing to pigeon-hole.
