Weird Fruit Records - (Record Label Interview)
Episode 429
Monday, 2 March, 2026
“Here’s some weird fruit. Trust me — once you bite into it, you’ll love it.” What if your record label operated like a farmers market for strange, exotic fruit? PRESENTED BY LANDR - get.landr.com/otherrecordlabels In this episode, I sit down with Aaron of Weird Fruit Records, a Santa Cruz-based label born out of pandemic farming, unconventional recording spaces, and a love for music that’s just a little… weird. We talk about: Why “weird” is a compliment Recording inside hollowed-out redwood trees Building a label around production and collaboration The per-project label model (instead of restrictive long-term deals) Balancing artistry, engineering, and marketing Why some music needs to slow down before it’s released This is a conversation about creativity without handcuffs — and how to introduce listeners to music they didn’t know they were ready for.
