Os Fruit Bats são liderados pelo guitarrista, pianista e vocalista Eric D. Johnson, o principal letrista e único membro constante.
Originalmente membro do grupo de curta duração, I Rowboat, Johnson e mais dois amigos também membros da banda, Dan Strack (guitarrista) Brian Belval (baterista), criaram o Fruit Bats como projeto paralelo.
Quando o I Rowboat separou-se, o Fruit Bats tornou-se o principal foco de Johnson. Lançado por Tim Rutili e Ben Massarella
