The electronic artist presents her debut LP and self-directed short film, GOOD LUCK.
DEBBY FRIDAY’S debut long-player GOOD LUCK arrives on Sub Pop & Arts & Crafts (in Canada) this spring. DEBBY recently re-located from Vancouver to Toronto, and for her debut she worked with a producer for the first time: Juno- and Polaris Prize- nominated composer Graham Walsh. The jump up in production value adds a sort of heft and pull to the genre, flexibility on parade here: think of it a little like Sevdaliza meets Death Grips.
Few do it like DEBBY, though. Lucid, acid housey, high-BPM track I GOT IT—accompanied by Chris Vargas of Pelada and Uñas—has her unprecedentedly cocksure and vainglorious. She’s still drawn to certain keys and moods (the brooding D and F minor are all over this album) to
suggest melancholia, darkness. However, her lead single SO HARD TO TELL sees FRIDAY shed all of her signature industrial tropes, to deliver a completely out of pocket, and totally assured, falsetto pop song. This sun-bright track is a crucial signifier in FRIDAY’S expansion.
The album GOOD LUCK is being co-released with a short film of the same name, co-directed by FRIDAY and Nathan De Paz Habib (past work includes Eroica by Chino Amobi). It’s a surreal teenage love story of individuation. Select DEBBY FRIDAY shows will be accompanied by the short film screening.
