Fruition

Our guests this week got their start busking on the streets of Portland, Oregon, but it wasn't long before their popularity pulled them onto the open road. Jay Cobb Anderson and Kellen Asebroek are pivotal and founding members of roots music band Fruition. They have toured with Greensky Bluegrass, the Infamous Stringdusters, Yonder Mountain String Band, and many others and have appeared at iconic festivals such as Telluride Bluegrass Festival, WinterWonderGrass, and the Northwest String Summit. Fruition's 2018 release, 'Watching It All Fall Apart,' debuted at on the 'Billboard' Bluegrass Albums Chart. 'Billboard' said, "Fruition have matured into one of America's most compelling roots acts" while 'Rolling Stone Country' noted that, "The trio's harmonies are as tight as anything coming out of Nashville." 'No Depression' declared that they're "a band whose chemistry feels lived-in and wholly authentic." I got a chance to catch up with them a while back to hear about their musical journey so far.
