freya

This Friday (tomorrow!), I'll be playing at The Button Factory: Sunny Ray [LIVE] Feat. Freya, opening for the beautiful Sunny Ray. I can't wait! :)✨🌟🌊

JUST ANNOUNCED: FREYA LIVE THIS FRIDAY 🌒✨August 8 Freya will be stepping in to play a special live set after Bridey Rose was unable to attend this Friday’s concert.

Her folktronica sound is a confessional outpouring of yearning and desperation, exploring the most vulnerable sides of love, loss, and identity through dreamy soundscapes, poetic lyrics, and hauntingly moving vocals.

"freya voices the kaleidoscopic emotions of youth, from the spacious, intelligent perspective of a goddess knowing more than she lets on" - Danica Bryant (muzic.net.nz review)

“Lends the listener the delicious sensation of experiencing something that would normally be kept private”
“Shimmering, sensual, searching... ultimately hopeful”
— Bee Trudgeon, Music NZ

This is a rare chance to catch Freya in such an intimate setting.

🌀 i was interviewed by Richard Thorne, editor of NZ Musician Magazine about my debut album *Of Water*, and currently feature on the home page of nzmusician.co.nz 😊🕊️ thank you to Richard, it was a pleasure answering the insightful questions about the processes behind my music 🌟💿 link in bio & story to read!🤍

🌀today marks one week since the release of my debut folktronica album *Of Water*!!! 🌊🤍

💿 creating this album - which began 3 years ago - has been so emotionally cathartic : from the outpouring when i first wrote the songs, to fully releasing those emotions into the world along with the finished album, to performing them live with a band which gives me a stronger sound… 🫀 i have learned so much about self expression and how to independently take action towards the things that bring me joy and passion 🌟🤍

i hope it affects you 🤍 which track is your favourite?😊🌬️

🌀film pics from our performance at on saturday
📸 taken by legend !!! 🌟🫀🌊

i really had the bestttt time over the last week playing two album release gigs with my amazing bandmates & being in my rockstar era!!!🕺:p 💖

stream my album *Of Water* on all streaming platforms✨💿🤍

🌀 A review of my album *Of Water* by John Bradbury of the 13th floor has been published! 🤍🌟 It gives insightful analysis of the lyrics and themes throughout each track 🌊🫀 link in bio & story to read the full article :)🌀

“This is a patient, finely drawn debut. Freya writes and performs with quiet confidence, and her collaboration with Harry Charles Leatherby ensures the production stays true to the songs’ emotional needs. The result is an album that listens closely to itself and leaves a lasting impression on those who are willing to do the same.”

Thank you John!😊
