About

Freya Arde's music was previously known from films such as The Hidden Life of Trees & the remake of The Flying Classroom. Now the renowned film composer announces her first solo album.

Freya Arde's debut album ECHO deals with relationships. The relationship to oneself, the relationship between people, the past, present & future.
Her poetic minimalism with guitar, strings and her “magical voice” (German Film Music Award, 2023) feels like an embrace by music.

Her first EP Spirit Awake in 2020 was followed by her single Moon Window, which she released on the Deutsche Grammophon label and reached more than 400,000 streams.
In 2023, she played support for James Heather's Germany tour. At the end of the year, they released a joint track, Immortal Beloved Rework, on the label Ninja Tune.

With her debut album ECHO, the award-winning composer and guitarist goes deep inside our soul, where we can feel & experience ourselves completely.

“My way of expressing love and self-love is my music” Freya Arde

“These achingly beautiful drones and tonal shifts are anchored by the occasional clean tone that refracts into a thousand versions of itself like the ripple of a stone thrown into water.”

— Ryan Hall from Tome to the Weather Machine on "Shimmer"
