In anticipation of their upcoming Strange Attraction EP set for release on September 7th, Los Angeles based alt-folk duo Freedom Fry share new single "Party Down" with VICE's Noisey. Highlighted by pulsating electronic beats and dreamy, melodic vocals of Marie Seyrat and Bruce Driscoll, the track stays true to the duo's infectious feel-good sound. The band has also shared a live video for the track here.
"Party Down is a song about getting through the grind of your daily life and wanting to make the good times last longer - having the foresight when you're in a good moment to realize that once it's over you're going to miss it,"
Freedom Fry comments. "We were playing with synths as lead elements, which we haven't done very much as a band. We wanted the beat to feel like a cross between Michael Jackson and the more danceable songs by The Clash. Once that was in place the rest of it just came together."
"Party Down" follows the release of first single and title track "
Strange Attraction" released last month via
BlackBook. Upon release of the EP,
Freedom Fry will bring their kinetic live energy to Los
Angeles on
September 9th at
Sunstock Solar Music Festival.
Freedom Fry has garnered over 50 million track streams and their music can be heard in over 50 films, shows, and commercials including Judd Apatow's "Love" and Grey's Anatomy. The band has appeared on
The Hype Machine over 50 times, including three #1's as they continue to turn heads on the international scale. They've performed in Europe and throughout the US with the likes of Stromae, Phantogram, X Ambassadors, and others.
