Fruit Vendor

Welcome to the Fruit Jam - where musical fruit is grown for a supportive tribe of people who love stories told through song. If you join me on Patreon, you'll not only be helping me create new fruit, but you'll also: - get access to the exclusive patron-only feed - receive all the songs in my catalog - journey with me as I meticulously put together masterfully written songs (while documenting the process) - get an inside scoop on what it's like to be a modern-day artist thriving in a digital world - learn how to share your own fruit Who Am I? My name is Josh and Fruit Vendor is my colourful, indie funk, songwriting project. It's my mission to write, record and produce songs that tell authentic stories that are distinct, compelling and vibrant, while all the while mixing those tales with a unique South African groove and sensibility. Songs are my musical fruit and I want to share this fruit as far and as wide as possible.  &quot;Original, quirky, funny and super skilled...&quot; - Weekend Special I've  always taken a DIY approach to how I create my art - from recording out of my grandmother's flat between two garden sofas and a deep freezer, to editing together music videos remotely during the quarantine - I use what I have at my disposal: my hands, my passion and a will to see great art made. But I can't do it all on my own! Your partnership will help me achieve the following: Minimum Milestone: create an ongoing marketing budget to get the music into the ears of as many listeners as possible. Milestone 2: pay collaborators, technicians or guest artists a competitive fee for their contribution to songs.  Milestone 3: produce professional grade videos to go with every song.  Help me share my fruit by sharing yours! &quot;Fruit Vendor brought something totally new and fresh to the table...unlike anything else we have heard before.&quot; - Real Wired Music, Channel 24 &quot;A remarkable storyteller...&quot; - BizCommunity &quot;A melting pot of culturally charged lyrics...putting you either into fits of laughter or bopping to energetic beats.&quot; - What's On in Cape Town
