Freedom Fry - The Words - Press Release by E

Freedom Fry (Marie Seyrat and Bruce Driscoll) released their latest single, "The Words". Endearing and urgent in all its honesty, the duos first track of 2016 will have you anxiously looking for more.

Says the duo of the new track: "We were messing around in the studio and came up with this hybrid, disco-folk song. It’s written from the perspective of a boyfriend or girlfriend who just needs to hear that they’re still wanted. We really liked that the lyric “Just say the words” kind of also sounds like “Je sais the words.” “Je sais” means “I know” in French."

Her by E

O'D's work brings R&B to the electronic age without drowning that soul in synth or overworking it with a too dense production and "Her" (featuring Effie) is our first look at his solo material, taken from O'D's EP due out later this year. "Her" is clean and decidedly light, without losing the fullness a lush production offers, and we've got it on replay.

If you need specific reasons to listen, there are airy synths, too smooth transitions, passionate lyrics, and a pretty melody just waiting to get you addicted; and look no further than the single art for a clear description of the feeling this track invokes.

Listen to "Her" and head to the sites to stay up to date with his future releases.

Dolly Daydream by E

Heavy in its indie riffs and domineering pop hooks, Mellor's "Dolly Daydream", taken from the band's Damage/Joy EP, out now, features dense riffs and a pretty melody solid enough to have you listening attentively.

While the track is ultimately easy to forget on its own, it's nice to listen to and the repetitive chorus will creep up on you, sticking around for days, while the EP, played out as a whole, is worth a bit of your time.
