Frenship - 'Capsize' | WCPO Lounge Acts

Показать описание

Electro-pop artist Frenship performs live for WCPO Lounge Acts. The group performs a stripped-down version of their breakout hit "Capsize."

This Los Angeles-based duo met selling stretchy ladies’ garments at Lululemon and experimented with their sound before honing in on the ’80s-inspired, high-energy dual vocals that now define them.

James Sunderland and Brett Hite’s single “Capsize” went viral in June 2016, streaming more than 18 million times on Spotify within a month of its release and earning a nod as a contender for Spotify's Song of the Summer.

“Once the song came out and we started playing concerts, we realized how big it had become because the houses were packed and everyone was singing along,” Hite told The Fairfax Times. “We had this big song and we weren’t really prepared for it.”

By the time Frenship released its debut EP “Truce" and dropped the video in September, Capsize was (unfortunately) on its way to being named among Billboard’s 20 most underrated pop songs of the year. Going platinum just two weeks back, though, may bring some consolation.

Frenship's WCPO Lounge Acts session was recorded on June 3rd, 2017 in the WCPO Lounge in Cincinnati, OH.
