Jerskin Fendrix – today returns with a brand new single “Jerskin Fendrix Freestyle”

Shropshire-via-London singer, songwriter and composer Jerskin Fendrix today returns with a brand new single “Jerskin Fendrix Freestyle” via untitled (recs). The wildly bombastic, fusion-driven single is Jerskin’s first new music since his critically acclaimed debut album ‘Winterreise’, named Loud & Quiet’s Album of the Year 2020.

In the intervening years since his debut, Fendrix has enjoyed a wildly successful run of film score compositions for Yorgos Lanthimos, winning an Ivor Novello award and earning BAFTA, Oscar and Golden Globe nominations for his ‘Poor Things’ score as well as winning Film Composer of the Year and Discovery of the Year awards at the 2024 World Soundtrack Awards.

Jerskin Fendrix was raised in the rural county of Shropshire, England, where he learnt violin and piano. In his early twenties, Fendrix moved to London and spent 2 years nurturing a visceral live personality at the iconic South London venue Windmill Brixton.

In 2018 he composed the music for an experimental opera UBU, performed at the V&A Museum. The Guardian called the score “brutal” and “unsettling”. He released his debut-album Winterreise in April 2020 via untitled (recs). An “unhinged collection of pop songs”, Loud & Quiet Magazine named it their 2020 Album of the Year. 

Stay tuned for further new music from Jerskin Fendrix in 2025.
