A sizzling high-voltage track dropped from the cosmos, ‘Hello’, marks the triumphant return of Friedberg, released into the wild via the visionary Clouds Hill label. This auditory slice of heaven signals the burgeoning dawn of their much-anticipated debut LP, slated to etch its mark on the soul of August 2024.
A concoction of unparalleled energy, ‘Hello’ is Friedberg’s invitation to a sonic feast rich with addictive guitar riffs that tangle effortlessly with the hypnotic distortions of Anna Friedberg’s voice—each notes a dance between starlit grace and pure electric dynamism. This track captures their artistic essence: a band redefining versatility with a sound that swings from the smoky echoes of allure to raw, unbridled exuberance, staking their claim as the future luminaries of the aural realm.
The quartet is winding up an event-laden calendar, buzzing with the anticipation of SXSW cameos, where they’ll cast their spell on stages such as the British Music Embassy and End Of The Trail’s revelries in the heart of Austin, Texas. With the promise of resonance at this year’s Great Escape Festival, they’re also proudly slated to carve their symphony alongside Birmingham’s freshly minted sensation Big Special in May.
Crafted in the crucible of 2019, Friedberg is the brainchild of Austrian maestro Anna Friedberg. This London/Berlin outfit, including Emily Linden’s six-string wizardry, Cheryl Pinero commanding the low-frequency frontier, and Laura Williams breaking it down on the skins, has been echoing since their ‘Go Wild’ days—a tangible hit endorsed by the gaming empire of FIFA 2020, and celebrated in the hallowed halls of the BBC’s ‘Normal People’. Their inaugural EP ‘Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah‘ demonstrated their prowess, launching them into the stratosphere with stage-thrashing anthems.
