Event Information:
An essential addition to Chicagos long lineage of forward-thinking indie rock, Friko transforms every song into a moment of collective catharsis. Known for their high-energy live show, Friko aims to deliver a live experience thats fantastically disorienting in its emotional arc. Mastered by Heba Kadry (Bjrk, Big Thief) and engineered by Jack Henry and Scott Tallarida, Where weve been, Where we go from here (out now on ATO Records) embodies a sonic complexity befitting of a band that names Romantic-era classical music and the more primal edges of art-rock among their inspirations. Where weve been, Where we go from here has catapulted Friko into the national spotlight, with glowing reviews from Pitchfork, SPIN, Rolling Stone, Alternative Press, Chicago Sun-Times, Paste, and more, along with placement on several Best Of 2024 lists including Vulture/New York Magazine, A.V. Club, Paste, who named Where Weve Been their #1 song of the year so far, and NPR Music, who deemed Get Numb To It! a contender for one of the years best songs. The band has also received airplay from influential radio stations such as WXRT, Q101, KUTX, WYMS, and KCMP, and Where weve been, Where we go from here also charted in the top 10 on the NACC Top 200 College Radio chart. Following spring tours with Water From Your Eyes, WILLIS and Minds Eye, a summer with performances at Lollapalooza, Newport Folk Festival, and Fuji Rock, Friko will cap off 2024 supporting Royel Otis across North America before embarking on their first European headline run. Friko hopes that their musics emotional potency might have a galvanizing impact on audiences.
