Daniel Smith, the frontman and creative force behind indie rock project Danielson, likes to play dress up.

This is no secret — he and the band have sported everything from nurse costumes to police ensembles on stage over the course of their 15-plus years on the road. But the most impressive Danielson costume so far? Smith’s nine-foot tall, fruit-bearing tree outfit (see right).

We’re not sure if he’ll be wearing this get-up on stage tomorrow night, as Danielson will be stopping through Dallas tomorrow night for a gig at the Loft, but, in his honor, we’d like to take a moment and pay homage to some of our favorite musicians who, like Smith, have at one point or another dressed up as a food item.

See some of our favorite pictures of musicians dressed as various types of food after the jump.
