FREUNDE. AMERICANA. NASHVILLE POP. COUNTRY ROCK.
A Circle of friends. Musicians sharing a passion. Creating songs they love.
In Switzerland.
FREUNDE, being the German for “friends”, is a project centered around Zurich, Switzerland based, Heiko Freund, and LA’s Daniel Schwarz, both producers and musicians in their own right but more interested in exploring the American songwriting tradition than merely furthering their own agenda.
The beauty of FREUNDE is that it is a loose collective rather than a band, one where a musically eclectic and ever-shifting group of singers, songwriters, musicians and engineers move through its ranks in the pursuit and celebration of Americana, Nashville Pop and Country Rock sounds. This ever-fluid approach means that things remain fresh and fun and as the line-ups change different combinations of talent and ideas, musical outlooks and past experience are jumbled together in new and exciting ways. They also have an interesting public persona, preferring to be represented as a cartoon and thus putting ego firmly to the back of the project and the music to the fore.
