[pullquote quote="Fruitcakes get a bad rap, so we decided to give the ULTIMATE recipe." credit="Fred Schneider"]Nothing says “holidays” like a fruitcake. Whether it’s moist, stale, crumbly, or hard-as-a-rock, that seasonal culinary delight never fails to provide the pizazz in a holiday meal. Ok, maybe that’s giving fruitcake too much credit. But it is without a doubt a symbol of the season, and for that reason “Fruitcake” is a key track on the new holiday album Destination… Christmas from The Superions, a hilarious group out of Orlando, Florida which happens to feature Mr. Fred Schneider of The B-52s as frontman. Schneider stopped by the Street Date studio recently to discuss “Fruitcake” and other gems off this soon-to-be-classic holiday album.
