Fake Fruit includes Hannah “Ham” D’Amato, Alex Post, & Miles MacDiarmid, have dropped new single “Gotta Meet You,” a track lifted from their forthcoming album Mucho Mistrust, available August 23rd via Carpark Records. The track follows singles “Mucho Mistrust,” “Cause of Death,” and “Más o Menos,” ““I gotta tell you about / The life I planned for us / I think that once you know me / It’ll make sense to you,” D’Amato sings, ruminating on the feeling of when you briefly meet someone and you allow yourself to daydream an entire future together.

Fake Fruit originally started as the nomadic songwriting project of California native Hannah “Ham” D’Amato, who spent time living and performing in New York City and Vancouver, but it’s been a full-fledged band for half a decade. After she moved to the Bay Area in 2018, she enlisted guitarist Alex Post and drummer Miles MacDiarmid along with a rotating cast of bassists to flesh out her songs.
