The fast-rising producer and DJ played a live set to a small audience inside the pub in a private event yesterday (July 12) – specific details about this event, however, have not been revealed by either Fred Again.. or the pub, who only shared on Instagram Stories that it was “closed for a private event” on Friday.
However, he did share on Instagram Stories today (July 13) about his time at the pub, where he was filmed performing with The Japanese House’s Amber Bain her 2023 song ‘Sunshine Baby’ – here, its languid indie rock instrumentation was substituted by Fred Again..’s lone lush keyboards. “Amber’s voice is so magical I couldn’t stop smiling,” he wrote in an Instagram Story.
The set also comprised solo material by Fred Again.., who last sprang a surprise set onto Glastonbury 2024 festivalgoers weeks ago where he debuted new material.
(@ravefootage)The producer will be performing at the forthcoming Reading & Leeds 2024 festival this August, in a headlining slot alongside Lana Del Rey, Liam Gallagher, Catfish And The Bottlemen, Blink-182 and Gerry Cinnamon. Meanwhile, The Japanese House recently shared a country-inspired new single ‘:)’ (pronounced ‘Smiley Face’), described in a press release as an “ode to happiness”.
Last month, Fred Again.. performed his first headline stadium show in the US, during which he briefly stopped his performance to chase fans off the stage.
NME gave his Brian Eno collaborative album ‘Secret Life’ three stars, saying: “Released just a few weeks after Fred closed Coachella with a set of thunderous dance and techno alongside Four Tet and Skrillex, ‘Secret Life’ sees him handbrake turn once again into ambient haze, assisted by the man who made it all happen for him. This surprise album – despite its frequent beauty – works best as a puzzle piece rather than a standout record in its own right.”
