GRAMMY®-nominated DJ/producer FISHER has returned with the epic, ultra-infectious club anthem “Freaks.” The chart-topping artist teased the track within his recent two-hour Essential Mix on BBC Radio 1, which also included some of his unreleased hits. The artwork for the single was designed by Cuban-born artist Juan Marante // El Gran Tocayo.
“Freaks” is the title track of FISHER’s new two-track EP, which will be released via Catch & Release / Astralwerks on March 31. Pre-save the EP, which will also include the track “Wanna Go Dancin,” HERE.
Raised on Australia’s Gold Coast, FISHER became a sponsored pro surfer at age 16 and travelled the world. In recent years, he turned his DJing hobby into a massively successful career. His first two releases, Ya Kidding and his Oi Oi EP, were released on the famed Dirtybird Records. “Losing It” – released jointly by FISHER’s own Catch & Release label and Astralwerks in 2018 – reached No. 1 on both Billboard’s Dance Club Songs chart and the Australian Club Tracks chart. The biggest club record of the year, it became a staple in every DJ’s set, with spins from the likes of underground titans such as Carl Cox, Nic Fanciulli, Idris Elba, Erick Morillo and mainstream artists such as The Chainsmokers, Tiesto and more. To cap it all off, “Losing It” received a GRAMMY nomination for “Best Dance Recording.”
His 2019 follow-up single, “You Little Beauty,” which sampled the vocals of late disco and house legend Loleatta Hollowa, also topped Billboard’s Dance Club Songs chart. EDMSauce.com observed, “FISHER is back, and the summer is once again his.” Billboard said, “Australian mad man Fisher has yet to bust on his mission for grooves…Each tune is bassier and funkier than the last.” To date, FISHER has amassed over 400 million combined global streams.
