Fruit Bats in Missoula, with a new album
The tour supports The Landfill, which came out June 12, 2026, on Merge Records. Logjam says frontman Eric D. Johnson recorded it with his full band mostly live on the floor at Bear Creek Studios in Washington, with “no click tracks, no comped vocals, and minimal overdubs.” Songs from the record include “The Landfill,” “That Goddamn Sun,” “Think Aboutcha” and “Perhaps We’re a Storm.”
Johnson also sings in the band Bonny Light Horseman. Older Fruit Bats favorites include “When U Love Somebody” and “Gold Past Life.”
Details
The Wilma is at 131 S. Higgins Ave. in Missoula. Logjam also lists hotel discounts for concertgoers on its event page.
