Alexandra Sauser-Monnig and Amelia Meath have been yodelling together for upwards of 15 years – in the backseat of a Prius while on their first cross-country tour, on back porches and backstages. It's what led them to Fruit, their debut release as The A's – a joyous 10-song collection spanning genre and decades, with interpretations of traditional, lullabies, and an original song, it weaves between the weird and the wonderful.

It's a collection of 10 seemingly incongruous songs, but with the through line of Sauser-Monnig and Meath's vocals and sense of humour working in tandem, they fit together into a cosmic yodelling-folk masterpiece. Fruit feels like blowing the dust off a precious artifact of decades past, but also winking and modern. Sauser-Monnig sums up their ethos on the project succinctly: "If it doesn't male you cackle or cry, it doesn't belong."
