Frootful’s debut album Colours was released earlier this year on Freestyle Records (produced by Lack of Afro) and received high praise from critics and DJs across Europe. The band played sell out album launch shows and were invited to perform at Port Eliot Festival and the RHS Chelsea Flower Show this summer.

The latest Frootful single  (released on 7th November 2011 on Freestyle Records) features a Latina version of the album track Slowtime with vocals from Angeline Morrison, Latin Strut and an instrumental remix of Slowtime by Lack of Afro.

The Frootful moniker extends beyond just music, as Nick Radford has been working under this name professionally as an illustrator for over ten  years.  Keen to fuse his two passions Frootful will be exhibiting a collection of his artwork and that of illustrators Bobby Telegramme and Millie Marotta in the howies store on Carnaby Street, London during November 2011 which will move to the Hand Bar in Falmouth, Cornwall for December.
