FRÉ EPK

Last updated 06/05/2025

Gemini 

FRÉ is a new force in the international pop scene. Her music sits at the intersection of pop and indie, influenced by artists like Billie Eilish, Joni Mitchell and Bon Iver – but her sound is anything but conventional. She is an artist who refuses to be confined to a box, both musically and personally. Her music and lyrics speak to the voice of a generation fighting for equal rights, equal opportunities, and a livable planet. In 2021, FRÉ founded the Dutch branch of Music Declares Emergency, an international sustainability movement that includes artists like Massive Attack, Bon Iver, and Billie Eilish.

FRÉ LIVE:

“ Last Thursday, I was pleasantly surprised by FRÉ at her EP release concert in the Tolhuistuin (…) Sure, other people can go to the Ziggo Dome, but I think, well this way, I’ve already seen it. It was just REALLY good!”

Menno Visser (Radio 2 / 3FM)

FRÉ's Story

“About Atmosfeer (EP)
“You really released an infectious, energizing EP, with important stories in it that you tell.”

Hijlco Span ( Radio 5)

 

“About Tot de Nacht (single) —
“This is one of those songs that you want to remember, very special and captivating from start to finish.”

– Frits Spits ( Radio 1 )

A NEW SOUND

She speaks at major conferences and festivals, constantly pushing for a more sustainable and equitable future. In 2025 she was named a HERO within the Global Cultural Narratives Circle — joining a global network of verified climate mobilizers driving policy change from the frontlines. After releasing her album Gemini on sustainable (pink) vinyl, with an unforgettable release concert at Paradiso, FRÉ is now about to start recording her next album Where We Meet in New York City alongside internationally renowned musicians. That same spirit — of meeting, listening and showing up fully — is what defines her on stage. It’s in her live performance that you’ll truly see who she is: an artist unafraid to shine.
