Indie artist, Freddy Black returns with thought-provoking single

Music Review | 14th Feb, 2025 Freddy Black

Following close on the heels of his recent singles, Drainpipe Diamond and Cloak and Dagger, multi-talented and experimental poet, Freddy Black, latest single, questions the sacrifices made at the altar of convenience.

Hailing from Dublin, Freddy Black and the Hotel Mosaic, are artisans of sound, weaving thought and melody into music that challenges and converses. Their journey continues, ever pushing the envelope, ever kindling the flames of discourse. With each new release, they strive to evolve their sound, explore new themes, and create music that resonates with their audience.

The latest single, Silhouette Roulette is a thought-provoking narrative that scours the depths of our digital personae. The Song's title is a poetic distillation of its core message. The 'silhouette'—a mere outline, a shadow of a person glimpsed before true understanding blooms. And the 'roulette'—the unpredictable spin of fate in the quest for something more, something elusive.

Freddy Black, the main voice of the ensemble, captures this dubious zeitgeist in a line of stark simplicity: Internet dating is full of ghosts. By 'ghosts', he refers to the transient nature of online connections, the people who appear and disappear without a trace. It's an image that resonates with the solitude that pervades the quest for companionship in our digital age, a sentiment magnified by the shadows of a pandemic and the weight of economic strife.
