Georgie Fruit
of wikipedia
Georgie Fruit ![]() Kevin Barnes as Georgie Fruit at a 2007 show in San Francisco Georgie Fruit is the name of Kevin Barnes' cross-dressing stage persona, similar in many ways to David Bowie's alter ego Ziggy Stardust. Georgie Fruit was first mentioned on Of Montreal's 2007 album Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer? during the song "Labyrinthian Pomp". In several interviews, Barnes has described the role of Georgie Fruit on Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer?:[4] "Barnes himself has described the album as a concept album, 'detailing his transformation from Kevin Barnes into Georgie Fruit.'According to Barnes, Georgie Fruit will play a prominent role on Skeletal Lamping. In the same interview with Pitchfork Media, Barnes elaborated on the Georgie Fruit's background and character: "The character's name is Georgie Fruit, and he's in his late forties, a black man who has been through multiple sex changes. He's been a man and a woman, and then back to a man. He's been to prison a couple of times. In the 70s he was in a band called Arousal, a funk rock band sort of like the Ohio Players. Then he went through a few different phases." Quote:

I read that before and it is really fucking stupid. I love Of Montreal but that is mad pretentious and dumb and gay. At least when it is explained the way it is on there.

I am pretty sure it's very tongue in cheek as The Past is A Grotesque Animal really has nothing to do with that I don't think.
It's like Sufjan Stevens doing an album for every state. |
