Eric D. Johnson is a singer and songwriter and composer best-known as the guy behind the indie-folk-rock band Fruit Bats which he started as a four-track side project while living in Chicago in the late 90s and playing in indie-rock bands like I Rowboat and Califone.
He relocated to the Pacific Northwest and Fruit Bats was signed to Perishable Records and began releasing albums, starting with the official debut Echolocation in 2001. In the years since, Fruit Bats has put out about a dozen records and Eric tours extensively…sometimes with a band, sometimes solo. For about four years starting in 2007, he served as a core touring and recording multi-instrumentalist for the indie-pop-rock band The Shins - and in 2018 he co-founded the folk supergroup Bonnie Light Horseman alongside Anaïs Mitchell and Josh Kaufman. Their 2020 self-titled debut album earned two Grammy nominations.
