Special Friend

Special Friend is an indie noise pop duo based in Paris. Their music is the sound of two people in perfect sync. The songs are threaded through with mysterious melodies, threads of distortion, strands of keyboard and vocal harmonies that briefly take your breath away. They feel like three-dimensional objects, impossible to pin down, endlessly inventive and enchanting.

“Charm and joy. Remember those? There’s lots of both in the playful, bass guitar-less songs American singer/drummer rica Ashleson and singer/guitarist Guillaume Siracusa create as Special Friend. Floating inside an iridescent bubble of Galaxy 500-like dream pop.” Mojo

"Special Friend have made an album that should matter a great deal to anyone who lived through the '90s, fell in love with the sound of indie rock from that era, or just need a break from bands who overpromise and underdeliver." AllMusic
