Eleanor Friedberger, one half of Chicago's The Fiery Furnaces, will release her debut solo album 'Last Summer' on November 14th through Merge Records.
Recently released stateside, 'Last Summer' has received great reviews and is now ready to make it's European debut, following a London show at Platform Bar & Terrace on September 29th.
The autobiographical lead single from the album 'My Mistakes' will be released on November 7th and you can see the video for it below.
Together with her brother Matthew, The Fiery Furnaces won
a number
of awards, sold out
happenings
the
world
over and recorded nine albums with sales that hit well above the 100k mark.
That experience, despite the
fact
that
The Fiery
Furnaces
aren't breaking
up, inspired
Eleanor to
make
her first
solo
record, 'Last Summer'.
In
the
music, you
will
hear the
casual confrontation of
the most emotionally direct Fiery Furnaces songs,
plus a lot
of
snap, crackle and pop. In
fact, in
these
songs made of memories, you
will hear the
future along with hints of Sparks, Donovan, Procol Harum, Kath Bloom, Lô
Borges and
Todd
Rundgren too.
With
'Last
Summer' ,
Eleanor Friedberger may
well be tellin g
us about last
summer, or various last summers, or
even — WATCH
OUT! — the last
summer
t here will ever be... One thing
is
c ertain: she's
playing a long
game. Welcome to
Level One.
