If you’re only familiar with Eleanor Friedberger as the subject of “Eleanor Put Your Boots On” by Franz Ferdinand and “Anything You Want” by Spoon, it’s time to catch up! After eleven years and nine albums alongside her brother in Brooklyn indie rock duo Fiery Furnaces, it only took two months for Friedberger to release her first solo record in 2011, and she’s been building up her brand ever since.
2018 witnessed the release of Friedberger’s fourth solo effort, Rebound – an album inspired by a recent immersive trip to Greece and arguably her finest work to date. Speaking of trips, Friedberger is waist deep in a multi-month international tour continuing next week in the Lone Star State! She’ll be playing at 3TEN ACL Live next Wednesday and warming up earlier that afternoon with a live Studio 1A performance. If you’ve got a few hours at hand, dive into Friedberger’s diverse discography, starting with Rebound‘s lead single, “Everything”!
