Following their critically acclaimed album The Odd Ones, London band Ooberfuse have announced their brand-new single Set Me Free out 7th December 2018 via FSF Records. Written about the emotions unleashed when someone uses the courts to take away your freedom, Set Me Free uniquely bleeds irresistible electronica hooks with timeless other-worldly vocals of front-woman Cherrie Anderson.
As keyboardist Hal St John’s riffs intoxicate with infectious groove, the track simmers to an explosive climax ‘open your heart to me.’ Cherrie explains : “Having the courage to be the person you are called to be in the context of violent forces demanding conformity, requires an almost supernatural strength. If we open our hearts to those who are fighting for their freedom, we combine our strength with theirs to transform cycles of violation.”
Ooberfuse have built an east-to-west reputation for their live performances, with recent tours to Japan, China, Korea, Italy, Spain and Portugal. UK acclaim has been received from BBC Radio 1’s Huw Stephens, Paul Oakenfold and Sister Bliss. BBC Introducing’s Tom Robinson commented : “Cherrie Anderson’s vocal reaches out of the headphones from bar one and shakes hands with your ears. It’s just gorgeous. If pop music is a broad church, then credibility is a fine line drawn down the middle of the nave, and one that Cherrie and her collaboration partner Hal St John have managed to tread deftly... Music that’s upbeat and accessible, yet quirky and charming... Classy, well-made pop music.”
