Because this band is Irish, amazing, and totally not as big as they should be, I'm only putting up a track download + youtube video, GO OUT AND BUY THEIR ALBUM!!! :)
"A five piece from Cork who take the anguish, angst and pain out of rock 'n' roll opting instead to just be really good. Beautiful, smart, and wealthier than most regular folk, FRED are the people's band, making music for the people, by the super-people. Imagine getting a face massage, that's what FRED's music does, it massages your face but nothing else, for its selective in its technique. It also takes you to the cinema and buys you Coke and a bag of minstrels" Says the band.
Their third album, Go God Go, is being received with such critical mass it is being honed as one of the strongest Irish releases of 2008 ("Startingly good music" - Hotpress, "Saviours of Pop" - State). With the first three singles. Running, Skyscrapers; The Lights, taking over the national airwaves simultaneously, their live reputation and fanbase has grown at a rapid pace, enlisting droves into the Fred army everywhere they go.
Musically the acknowledge legends as Sly Stone, Curtis Mayfield, Bill Withers and The Beach Boys as well as tipping their hat to such contemporaries as Wilco and The Flaming Lips.
Go God Go was recorded in Love Tap Studios, Cork and mixed by Mark Wallis who is one of the most experienced and versatile producers around regarded by his peers as having the best pair of ears behind any studio having worked with U2, Talking Heads,The Smiths, Iggy Pop, and The Stranglers.
