Fruition has added new dates to the band’s upcoming Hard To Make Money Tour and shared a slinky new single from which the tour gets its name.
Following previously announced March tour dates in the Midwest featuring opening sets by Willy Tea Taylor and an appearance at Baja Wondergrass in El Sargento, MX in April, Fruition will return to the road in May for a run of spring tour dates in Oregon, California, and Arizona. Tickets for the new shows go on sale Friday, February 9th at 10 a.m. PT via the band’s website. Click below to view a full list of shows.
Fruition has also been recording new music for future release, and fans can expect to hear fresh material rolled out at the newly announced shows. The band shared the first of the new songs, “Hard To Make Money”, along with the tour announcement. Written by guitarist and vocalist Jay Cobb Anderson, the song strikes a critical tone, addressing the way personal greed produces inequality on a societal scale with poignant lyrics like, “Some folks take it, some work to make it, and some folks just got good luck / but the poor stay needy while rich stay greedy and they never seem to give a buck.”
“There’s too much not-enough going round, and that’s all we seem to get,” said Anderson. “The American dream’s been sentenced to death by the powers that be. Bees make honey and it never goes bad. Man makes money and it’s never gets better. And it’s hard to make money these days.”
