More about I Am Harlequin

Enchanting and innovative, I Am Harlequin is the creation of German-born, London-based musician Anne Freier who writes, records and produces all her own music. Having grown up in Germany at the end of the GDR regime, Anne was introduced to the world of ballet and opera early on and experienced a wealth of popular music when the wall came down. These inspirations led to her embracing a menagerie of instruments and technologies, creating a bold and intricate sound in her music. Her sophisticated, off-kilter arrangements owe as much to a classical background as to a veracious love of melody, forming stirring and unforgettable pop songs.

Inspirations for I Am Harlequin are drawn from classical music, particularly the Russians of the 20th century (Prokofiev, Rimski-Korsakow, Rachmaninoff), to the advanced choir arrangements in Stephen Sondheim musicals, as well as Kate Bush, Rickie Lee Jones, Grace Slick and Joni Mitchell, whom she grew up listening to.

‘The Liberty / The King’s Daughter’ is released on October 31st 2011, ahead of I Am Harlequin’s debut album, due in 2012. Already proving to be a prolific songwriter in both range and ideas, I Am Harlequin is going to be a big One To Watch over the coming months.
