Who: Turbo Fruits (Jonas Stein: vocals, guitar; Dave McCowen: bass, vocals; Matt Hearn: drums; Kingsley Brock: guitar, vocals) What: Garage rock Where: Nashville, Tennessee History: From 2004‐2008, Jonas was the guitarist in the late, great Be Your Own Pet. The first Turbo Fruits album came out as a side project in August 2007 on Ecstatic Peace Records. "Volcano," a song inspired by an electric bong of the same name, was a minor sensation on the evening shows on BBC Radio 1. "Tenacious, canines-clamped-to-the-calves-style garage-punk clatter, "Volcano" especially, a standout murder-blues pranker, summoning the image of Nick Cave steering a dragster over the Bailey's aisle of Thresher's to get the good stuff. It's callous, but seemingly, the less they care the better it gets." - NME
