Friend of a Friend formed in the summer of 2020 after a lifetime just missing each other. Since the 2022 release of their debut album "In Arms," recorded on tape in Nashville, they’ve toured relentlessly throughout Europe and North America. Their sophomore album “FACILITIES” was recorded in-studio in Joshua Tree, California with Jordan Lawlor (M83, J. Laser) and released in 2024.
FOAF has been named an artist to watch by Rolling Stone, an “American Visionary Duo” by Mesmerized, an “indie rock band taking the scene by storm" by Wonderland Magazine, a "cultural phenomenon" by Extravafrench, "sonic visionaries" by Plastic Magazine, "the next huge thing in indie rock" by Each Measure, "seamlessly intriguing" by Obscure Sound. Their third album is set for release in 2025 under Earth Libraries.
