Place In The Sky (rel 10.09.21) is the second single from Indie-Rock singer-songwriter Freddie Mercer. Place In The Sky is a lockdown-inspired cry of freedom; it was recorded at AIR Studios (London) and co-produced with Alex Ferguson, mixed by Joshua Mellody and mastered by Kevin Tuffy. Freddie Mercer develops his sound into a mix of classic and modern sonic landscapes placing heartfelt songwriting and live raw arrangements at the heart of it all.
Freddie Mercer says: “This song manifested itself on the piano in lockdown and represents the anxiety and frustration that I was feeling at the time. It began as a Thom Yorke’esque vocal above some punchy piano chords I was hitting hard and then I then took it to my engineer/co-producer and we fleshed it out with the band in the studio; the beat came next as the backbone of the song and then the wicked sounding guitars driving alongside it…it was ours and now it’s yours, Freddie X”
