Americana quintet Fruition has released new song, “Whole World of Trouble,” which “questions the state of our society, and if our social constructs have unified or divided the majority of people.”

Vocalist and guitarist Jay Cobb Anderson says:

Fruition had one day off on our recent tour and we had the urgent need record this song, so we used our precious down time to do just that. We’re never gonna make it if we keep seeing each other as separate rather than one people. We are all human, and if we let politics, religion, class, isms or pride divide us, we will self-destruct. Compromise, understanding, and love is the only path to victory – or else we’re all headed for a whole world of trouble.

Fruition recorded “Whole World of Trouble” live off the floor with minimal overdubs during a half day in the studio while on tour in Portland, ME in late September. The band “felt moved to release the track as soon as possible feeling that we all should consider pressing ‘pause’ and contemplate the sincere message behind it.:

“Whole World of Trouble” follows the August release of their new album, How to Make Mistakes, their first record in four years.
