Freya Beer has been hailed as “a raw and thrilling new talent” and is a singer-songwriter from West London who is inspired by art and literature, alternative fashion and music. Freya distills her disparate influences through a gothic soul and devil-may-care spirit that dares to dream in the darkness. Freya’s tribal, ritual, gothic-noir act has received taste maker support from 6 Music, BBC Introducing, Louder Than War, Time Out, and many more.
After releasing a series of exquisite singles and receiving strong support from the likes of Tom Robinson and Marc Riley on BBC Radio 6 Music – the latter of whom awarded her a live session on his show and highlighted it as one of his “Best of the Year” – Freya released her superb debut album ‘Beast’ via her own Sisterhood Records label in October 2021. The record garnered critical acclaim and unanimous fanfare, leading to packed UK headline shows and a support slot with her new fan John Cooper Clarke who described ‘Beast’ as “unmissable”.
