405 Focus: Fruit BatsJust before Christmas we caught up with Eric D. Johnson (aka Fruit Bats ) in cold, concrete London - which is a stark contrast to the sort of music he makes. We got the chance to talk to him about the origin of the band, old pop music, Echolocation , concept album, road life, sappy songwriting, hobos, the west coast, scoring soundtracks and Hawaiian music. That was done in the warmth of a venue. We then dragged him outside to perform 'You're Too Weird'. Sorry about that Eric. You can watch the interview/session ('You're Too Weird') below, or via our ...The 4059 January 2012

Best of 20112011 was pretty amazing and monumental! I knew that it would be a big year this time last year but you never know how things will play out. It was a year I took some calculated risks and got to do amazing things that I knew I was supposed to do. It will forever be burnt into my brain that I got to throw a killer music festival and have Daniel Johnston headline it. It was also great to be able to invite and so many other artists I love. I am working on the follow up to Middle of ...Top Fiver4 January 2012

Dr. Dog – That Old Black HoleClick here for download Sounds like: Wilco, Fruit Bats, M. Ward, Deer Tick Song : Dr. Dog - That Old Black Hole [download here] What's so good? Dr. Dog is a band I can count on. They fool around with genre, go bold with harmonies, and the result is consistently listenable and frequently excellent. “Old Black Hole,” the first track off their upcoming album Be The Void (out February 7), displays the band’s propensity for flexibility, all in the course of the one song. Starting out with bass and drum lines that drip with dark, dank fuzzy funk sounds (in ...indie shuffle7 December 2011
