Fieu Releases “Running”

Some days you just feel taking off, leaving behind all of the responsibility and baggage and bullshit and starting over. Queensland pop act Fieu taps into that desire in her brilliant new single “Running.”

It’s a bolder and more commercial sound than we’ve seen from Fieu at the past, which could be the influence of her collaborator Joel Quartermain of Eskimo Joe shining through. Either way, I like it. If you do too, make sure you catch Fieu at one of the remaining shows of her east coast tour.

Fieu Impress with Debut Single


Queensland band Fieu have captivated me with their debut single “Put it on the Line.” The track is the first song lifted from Fieu’s debut EP, also called Put it on the Line, and it’s an absolutely cracker.

It’s hard to believe it was originally imagined as a collective of a capella vocal loops. It’s so lush now, with pounding drums, keyboard synths, and layers of those angelic vocals from Emily Brewis. Her voice reminds me a little of Katie Noonan crossed with Beth Gibbons from Portishead. It’s stunning.

The Put it on the Line EP won’t be released until August, but you can get a sneak peek when Fieu launch the single with a free gig at Brisbane’s The Bearded Lady on May 17.
