FRIDA

Frida is frisky. Frida is creative. Sometimes she is very loud and stubborn. Often she plays in her own world: quiet and fragile. Her mood variates like the colors of her hair.

FRIDA is a joint project of award-winning singers Sara Decker, Mascha Corman and Julia Ehninger, as well as Jeroen Truyen (drums) and Conrad Noll (double bass). Five strong personalities with different musical influences create music for their alter ego Frida. FRIDA combines Sara Decker's and Julia Ehninger's qualities of merging pop music and improvised jazz with Mascha Corman's experimental vocal techniques and musical extravagance. Together with Jeroen Truyen's technical flexibility and Conrad Noll's steadiness, FRIDA takes you to unknown, new musical landscapes.

All FRIDA ensemble members have lived abroad as scholarship holders* of the DAAD, Fulbright, Studienstiftung des deutschen Volkes, NRW Landesstipendium and the Anna Ruths Foundation (New York, Brazil, Paris, Oslo, Berne, Maastricht). The impressions gathered there have been woven into the band's work since the ensemble was founded.
