Never So Red is Frankie Archer's debut EP. Bold and innovative, this is Frankie unashamedly bringing together her love for electronic music and her love for traditional music. Never So Red is packed with all sorts of sounds: mega synth riffs with four on the floor kick, hazily manipulated vocal textures and rhythms, straight up trad fiddle, smooth synth bass, lo-fi elements, bare, acoustic pizzicato and raw, vulnerable vocals.
Never So Red challenges out of date and harmful narratives and stereotypes, in traditional music and in everyday life.
