LA-based alt-pop duo Haute & Freddy have unveiled their powerful new single, “Shy Girl,” available everywhere now HERE.
“‘Shy Girl’ is a coming-out anthem in every sense – coming out of your shell, breaking free from expectations, and owning every part of yourself without apology,” say Haute & Freddy. “It’s deeply personal but also for literally anyone who’s ever felt like they had to shrink themselves to fit in. It’s about the power of embracing your inner wildness, defying the rules placed on you, and stepping fully into who you are. It’s that moment of both relief and rebellion, when you just stop caring in the most freeing way.”
Haute & Freddy will celebrate “Shy Girl” – and more new music to come – with their first-ever SOLD-OUT live show in New York City, set for The Slipper Room on June 3. Additional show dates and festival performances, including Electric Forest in Michigan this June, will be announced soon with international dates to follow.
The dazzling brainchild of Michelle Buzz and Lance Shipp, Haute & Freddy have quickly sparked a devoted fanbase – known as “The Royal Court” – with their spectacular, daring, and utterly unpredictable brand of alt-pop. Their love for theater, obscure synths, and underground club culture runs deep, infusing every track with an audacious energy. The duo moves through their music like runaway carnies, crashing through the veneer of polite society with all the flair of an 18th-century escapade. Comment sections everywhere are buzzing with loyal followers speaking in Ren Faire lingo, while their shows are filled with attendees crafting their own jester hats, as a mime clown joyfully twists balloon crowns for the rest of the Royal Court.
Last year saw the premiere of Haute & Freddy’s debut single, “Scantily Clad,” landing them on such influential playlists and covers while an official music video earned praise from PAPER as “an outsider’s fantasy that reads like a dream sequence…looks like a drunken opera house riot, featuring a full cast of unruly characters.” Further fan favorites followed, including “Anti-Superstar” and “Fashion Over Function.” Now, with today’s premiere of “Shy Girl,” Haute & Freddy’s momentum is picking up speed, promising more high drama, unique shows, and visual feasts to come.
