ifitbeyourwill S05E09 • Avery Friedman
What happens when lifelong musical appreciation finally transforms into creation? In this candid conversation, Brooklyn-based musician Avery Friedman reveals the surprisingly recent journey that led to her debut album "New Thing," set for April 2025 release.
From her earliest memories singing alto in her Ohio school choir to becoming a devoted music fan and reviewer in college, Friedman's path to making her own music was marked by one significant obstacle: debilitating performance anxiety. Despite loving harmony and understanding music deeply, she couldn't imagine herself as the performer rather than the audience. "I was a goalie in soccer," she reflects, "so it's not like I was totally averse to being in the spotlight in some way, but I was really, really scared."
The turning point came just two years ago when Friedman decided she had to try songwriting or risk permanent regret. That first attempt—simply playing chords and humming melodies—unlocked something profound: "How have I waited 26 years to do this?" Her creative process quickly evolved, typically beginning with guitar chord progressions that express her emotional state before weaving in melodies and lyrics that help process overwhelming feelings.
What makes Friedman's story so compelling is how she conquered the anxiety that had kept her voice hidden for so long. Through supportive relationships and deliberate mindset work, she gradually found confidence to share her music publicly. Now with two singles already released—"Flower Fell" and "Phone Booth"—and a full album on the horizon (available on vinyl and tape following the digital release), Friedman embodies what's possible when creative fear is finally confronted.
Discover how a late-blooming musical journey can produce work that feels both naturally inevitable and remarkably brave. Listen to Avery Friedman's singles now and mark your calendars for "New Thing" in April 2025—because sometimes the most authentic voices are the ones that take the longest to emerge.
All right, here we are people. Another episode of FBU, a podcast. Season five is progressing along and as we progress the weather is getting nicer and nicer here in the East Coast of North America Bring it on spring, you can smell it. And today I have Avery Friedman coming in from Brooklyn and she just is about to put out her first record called New Thing, and I just got the privilege of having her come on and we're going to talk all about New Thing but also about her music and how it started and all those fun things. Avery, thank you for accepting this invite. I am so happy to have you join and share an episode with you.
Avery Friedman:Yeah, thank you so much. I'm touched to be asked. I appreciate it.
Chris:Well, you need some well-deserved attention because you got two singles out so far off of this record coming out April people, april 2025. So keep it on your radar. But there's a couple of singles out already uh, flower fell and also phone booth, which are two great songs. But I was able, through um avery's uh guy um, to get the record and I got to listen to it and it's well worth the wait and, uh, you'll definitely want to get this one when it comes out. So, avery, the, I always love to start off just a little bit about you, where it all started and like when did music start to become something of interest to you in your formative years?
Avery Friedman:Yeah, I always was super drawn to music. I think growing up we were I grew up in Ohio and we were, we, I think we had to be in choir when we were young and like fourth grade and I really, really loved it and I remember, like I have a specific formative memory of uh, we had to sing carol of the bells, that christmas song, and um, we just, I think, had two parts like alto and soprano. I think, even like the, the little boys were either altos or sopranos.
Avery Friedman:Their voices are so high and everyone, like nobody, wanted to be an alto, because it's not the part of the song that you recognize.
Avery Friedman:But, it's not the like da da, da da, but I was an alto and I really loved it. Like I realized I really love harmony and I love just the sort of bodily feeling of singing with people and yeah, specifically harmony I've always been super drawn to and um. I remember like the first music I really loved I felt like made me feel how being in choir always made me feel um, but choir is such a great thing though?
Chris:eh, because as a kid, like, if you're interested in music, I mean you're not going to start a band at like eight, nine, ten, right? Yeah, like choir.
Avery Friedman:Like I've spoken to many musicians that that's their origin story is singing together in a choir, which is very very typical for for musicians yeah, when I think about it, it you know, it know it offers a because you know a big, a big reason I didn't dive into music, like writing and performing myself for so long One was because I was extremely anxious about performing. I was not not excited about that, but also because I was a big soccer player in high school and prior. But I think that just felt like the kind of thing that in where I grew up know, when your parents want you to work hard at something and like learn skills, they put you. But when I think about choir, I feel like a lot of the same lessons that you know you learn in the sports team, like teamwork, listening, listening to, like paying attention to each other, um, you know, just figuring out how like parts fit together and working on something towards a common goal.
Chris:Like, yeah, I think choir offers a lot of that, but anyway, sure does, sure does.
Avery Friedman:Excellent.
Chris:Yeah, yeah. And what were the first things every day, like in those years, that you were listening to, like did? You were singing in the choir, but I'm sure you were inspired also by musicians that you listened to on the radio or on whatever medium you had. What were some of those early kind of like sparks that started when you heard certain musicians bands, play?
Avery Friedman:Yeah, I mean, I grew up in my mom listened basically only to country and my dad listened to classic rock, so I didn't really realize other music exists beyond those two things and pop on the radio. But I remember I think it was 2011, my freshman year of high school, maybe I heard, um this song called Towers by Bon Iver from the title Bon Iver record and it just is has like a beautiful guitar hook but then he's singing in his like classic falsetto and it's like so full and so lush and he he always has a lot of vocal harmony in his songs and I just remember being like whoa, what, what is this? Um? So that's like the first song I remember really like falling in love with.
Chris:uh right, did you have thoughts of hey, like imagining maybe I could do this one day, like had those seeds started to blossom inside you a bit?
Avery Friedman:I mean it's so crazy. Like I did not even start thinking about that until a few years ago. I I sang in choir. I did learn to play guitar in high school, like vaguely, when I tore my ACL playing soccer and I couldn't like a year, and so I learned. I took a few guitar lessons but I actually quit because my teacher tried to make me sing and I was, so I just I was really petrified of singing in front of people. Like I couldn't try out for a solo for a really long time in choir. You know it's.
Chris:That's just anxiety, just feeling of like, yeah, the nerves.
Avery Friedman:Like raw and exposed, I think, because music always made me feel so much. I think being witnessed like within that feeling was really scary for me. You know, I was a goalie in soccer, so it's like. It's not like I was totally averse to being in the spotlight in some way, but I was really, really scared. So I didn't, I did not consider that a possibility at all, but I just. What happened was I just became like a huge fan. So I like like incessantly listen to these songs. I went to a bunch of shows. I in college, I became a music writer. I went to the University of.
Avery Friedman:Michigan and I wrote like music reviews and reviews of concerts and the part of the organization on campus that brought concerts to to school, and so I just really like immerse myself in the music world but just never, you know, learn to play songs that I loved on guitar but I never thought that I would be performing or writing. Yeah.
Chris:And what did you like so much about that? That aspect in college when you're writing reviews and concert reviews and stuff like that. I used to do that too in university. I loved it. It's so much fun. What, what did it bring you Like? What was the satisfaction in it for you?
Avery Friedman:I mean it's funny. You can probably relate too, because you know I've also hosted a few podcasts and like I love to talk to musicians because but I was always trying to well, I think, when I got to review things that I loved, I really liked to sort of understand what. What about it? I liked and try to put to words like a description, to describe what was so beautiful about it or what, specifically for me, like made me feel things. So I like to listen really closely and sort of like pick apart parts of the production or, like reviewing concerts, I like to analyze aspect of performance that was really you know, really it was really cool. I mean it's, it's funny, it's like a common. I think like, yeah, it's so much more comfortable for me to like be really moved by something when I feel like I really understand what's going on right, that makes sense.
Chris:And also yeah, for also the way to be around it too, so yeah, yeah, it's funny though you say that too, because I've had the same experiences like how do you put emotions into words you know that are effective that grab at that like the guts of it or the crux of what that song or record or show is. It's really not an easy task. I remember, like this is all prior, you know AI, where you could just like write me a text on this, like you have to think about the details and like what is this feeling that I'm feeling when I hear these or that line or the transition or the voice, or it's not an easy task.
Avery Friedman:Not at all. It's not an easy task, not at all. And I was an English literature major in college and so there was a lot of like close reading and paying, really, you know, dissecting sort of sentences and imagery and all this stuff. And you know, I remember like even taking English classes in high school, just being like could the author really have been like thinking about all this when they wrote this? You know, like just being like. Aren't we do? You think we're kind of like prescribing a bit onto this?
Avery Friedman:But you know, I just I just found so much value from like paying very close attention and like thinking about, yeah, the effect that choices in art have, whether you know, oh, because you know because, and I think sometimes probably artists when they create and listeners when they consume music, like it's probably not all intentional, probably they aren't, I know from experience, like it's not, like I'm like I'm going to put this one note here to make someone get a goose bump, you know. Or it's like when I'm listening to something, it may not be specifically because of that lyric or something, but it does feel cool and valuable just to. It feels like an act of not like devotion kind of, but an act of like honoring something, to pay really close attention to it, which is what that felt like to me.
Chris:Well, which I think would serve you tremendously well when it came to starting to write your own stuff. Yeah, can you tell us a little bit about how that started, because I know that I read your press release and that you only started performing in 2024, the summer of 2024, like not even a year ago, is that?
Avery Friedman:I think. I think potentially it was summer of 2023. That could have been a miss, but yeah, my first show was July 2023, so almost almost two years ago was my first show. It was like a back backyard show. Um, yeah, I was looking on your blog. I saw that you have talked to Hemlock Carolina.
Avery Friedman:Yes, yes yeah, she awesome. But Carolina was looking for a place to have a house show for their friend in New York and I played on that show. It was my first show and I was freaking out. Oh yeah, sorry, what was your question?
Chris:Well, like how you start, how you got into it, so like, I guess I'll, I'll, I'll. I'll nail down a little bit more what's your songwriting process like? Like, how do you go about getting an idea and then actually creating the structure around it, the song? Do you have a process that you tend to follow.
Avery Friedman:When I first decided like a few things in my life happened that made me be like I need to start writing songs. Like I need to at least try or else I'm going to regret it. Like I'm going start writing songs, I need to at least try, or else I'm going to regret it. I'm going to have regrets For a while, it was a very conscious choice where I was like, okay, maybe for the first I literally remember the first time in my life that I played a chord progression and tried to hum something over it. I was like, how have I waited 26 years to do this? What the hell Crazy.
Avery Friedman:It felt like a true blockage yeah and once I sort of and I took some classes and I made a sort of practice out of it, but then it became this thing where I think that my favorite songs I've written, I've sort of had like a some sort of anxious feeling, some type of like, or I'm having some big feeling that when I have like a big feeling that I I get overwhelmed, overwhelmed and I can't quite understand it or I don't really know what's going on, or like I just feel vaguely overwhelmed, I get like meta overwhelmed because I'm like why can't I understand what's happening?
Avery Friedman:But I've a my some of my favorite songs on this record because these are my, my first songs are ones that, like I would be hit with a sort of negative feeling and just sit down and, usually on the guitar first, try to I'd find like a chord progression that I liked and a way of playing it that felt expressive of what I was presently feeling and, you know, would either have like one phrase, like a lyric that I would, you know, start singing melodies over, but yeah, it's usually a chord progression first and then a sort of like back and forth of maybe I have like one stanza or one you know of lyric and then work out the melody, or vice versa. Yeah, but it's often guitar first for me.
Avery Friedman:Right, and then kind of singing or or making a noise with your voice over top to kind of see if you could weave a melody in there exactly and like maybe I'll have like one line that I know kind of feels representative of what's going on and I'll sort of like repeat that or yeah, and it'll be a sort of like back and forth of like evolving the, the melody and what I'm singing, and sort of like plugging in lyrics to that. Because it's funny, sometimes I'll hit a wall and be like you know, I'll write a verse and be like okay, I want the, I want it to sound slightly different for the second verse, but I can't even like unlock that part until I have written it, like because it's like you know, I'll want it to be reflective of the lyrics and like where the story of the song is going. Um, right, yeah, so it becomes a sort of back and forth, I think after, after that, yeah right, right and.
Chris:And when do you know you're on to something like? When do you know a series of chords together, you know the humming over top, where it's like, okay, I'm gonna keep working on this because I really feel it has legs to it as opposed to one. That would be just like I'm going to shelve that, because I just don't know where I'm going with it right now. Yeah, how do you know that feeling?
Avery Friedman:That's a. That's a great question and I think it kind of relates to, I feel like, what, coincidentally, we were talking about with music writing and understanding how things come together. I think the act of actually creating music is like the one area of my life where I think, or not, one area, like a place where I believe that like and just to trust my feeling, where it's like if, if I like this and if I want like, if it's stuck in my head, or like I write something, then I want to keep playing it. Or you know, if the chord progression like yeah, just if it, if it makes me want to keep going, basically, uh right, you know, and which is cool, because I think that that can be. I can be a bit logic-brained a bit or have problems sort of seeing something through unless it seems like it makes complete sense, but knowing that what makes good art isn't necessarily like logical consistency, it's just the sensation of like wanting more honestly.
Chris:Yeah, absolutely.
Avery Friedman:Or feeling like you want to return to something more honestly, absolutely, or feeling like you want to return to something um. But it's also been cool because stuff that I maybe shelf, shelve and I view it as sort of like a bank. You know, like first first song I ever wrote, like I it didn't go anywhere, um, but all the other ones I wrote after on this record, but I recently, like a few weeks ago, was like you know, I liked that whole chord progression, like I wonder if I could just repurpose that, basically, and write a whole new song different melody, different lyrics, and I wrote a song that I really love from this the chord progressions of the first song I ever wrote. So it's also cool to trust that, even if it's not immediately put to use in a song that I'm obsessed with, that it still has been unearthed and like maybe I can like pluck it in somewhere else in the future.
Chris:That's so cool. I was talking actually with Califoon yesterday and with Tim and he said similar thing to yours. But he will go after any kind of like field recording, like you know, recording like he was talking about recording air conditioner sound, just the hum, and then tuning his guitar to that hum and then writing a song about it, you know it's amazing.
Avery Friedman:That's because it's like a drone yeah, absolutely.
Chris:I just thought that was so brilliant, but it made me, it reminded me, when you you said that that you, you find that inspiration, you and you gather them, like musicians are like gatherers of stuff, because you never know right, I want to go back into that shelf and pull that out. I think it will fit great here. Yeah, having that library, yeah.
Avery Friedman:I used to want to be a journalist and I think like it's cool to, and I've always like kind of kept a journal and it's cool to think about. Yeah, it's cool to, and I've always kind of kept a journal and it's cool to think about. Yeah, now my voice memo app Never used it until two years ago and now it's insane in there with like, yeah, sound of a stream, sound of footsteps on the street, sound of fireflies. So, yeah, I really relate to that.
Chris:Yeah, those are Sometimes really happy accidents happen, right.
Avery Friedman:Absolutely. Yeah, Show that one.
Chris:What was the first song on this record that you wrote? Is it on the record the first song you ever wrote? Is it does it appear, on on new time, on new things right uh, it does not.
Avery Friedman:It was the song called bricks. It did not appear on it, but um, like I think nervous was like the second song I ever wrote right which is the last song on the record. New Thing was shortly after.
Chris:Okay, now another question. I have Anxiety, stress. Yeah, it destabilizes us, right?
Avery Friedman:Definitely.
Chris:How did you combat that? To get a guitar stand in front of people and reveal yourself, you know, like it's a, it's totally you're, you're, you're raw, right, it's there. There's nowhere to hide. How did you get to that like? What did you have to do to in your brain to be able to accomplish that? Because it's a huge accomplishment most people would never, never appreciate that.
Avery Friedman:Yeah, so many people do it, so it's hard to to. I I really do appreciate that because it was, it was a feat. Um, that year felt like such an excavation for me in a lot of ways, but I mean, first and foremost, like I was extremely supported, but it by friends and um the person I was dating at the time and like I was super, super supported and I'm so grateful for that. But I was so anxious that I was like convinced that they were lying, like not in a real way, but I was like they probably just want me to like do my little dream, even like we're gonna let her do this cute thing.
Chris:Um, they don't really like any of it, they're just like, yeah, they're just pulling the blind over my eyes, yeah sure um, so, yeah, I was super supported and encouraged.
Avery Friedman:Uh, I I also have this like little post-it before my first show, my one friend was like, because I'm trying things and winning like, I literally had to resort, resort to like insane like grounding things of like putting no things on my mirror, just to like take myself down from irrational thoughts because, like in my head, I know that like it's a beautiful thing to try. Anyone who's ever tried something like I've never been like that person is lame. I've been like that's so cool. Um, there was a lot of support, a lot of like just having to like combat these anxious thoughts with like what I actually believe, which is that this is worth it, that there's nothing to be embarrassed of, that it's like inspirational, like that for other people, and that, um, that nothing bad was gonna happen to me, that just like, worst case I flop and like I become more resilient and like, or worst case, I'm just yeah um.
Avery Friedman:It's skill that you're developing, right that you that you determined I have to do this, yeah exposure therapy and I also really trusted, like the fact that it was so petrifying to me but I wanted to do it anyway. Like that it was worth it. Like more so that more than I was scared of like getting rejected or feeling stupid for like performing and not landing, was like I was scared that I would never try this Cause I just knew that I would always regret it. Like I just I didn't want to regret not trying it.
Chris:Amazing, amazing. I am so happy that you took that step.
Chris:Cause we get to benefit from what you create now I'm so kind of like you're just saying that I'm not saying that I probably listened to your record about 30 times, and I'm not exaggerating that's no and I find that this record, listening to the whole thing has to happen like pulling one song out. It was just like why let's just listen the whole thing over again, because I find it flows so beautifully as a piece in itself. I love how you sequence things, your songs, because one flows into the next and forms the next.
Chris:It's just like this natural progression that happens. When did you get to the point? I have enough songs. I want to put a record out. How did you come to accomplishing?
Avery Friedman:this huge feat of putting out a record.
Avery Friedman:Thank you, yeah.
Avery Friedman:Well, first of all, thank you for the the compliment on the sequencing, because in some ways I feel like there's a lot of different type of vibes on this record and so I was a little worried that maybe it wouldn't be cohesive, but I think that there's enough through lines that it makes sense.
Avery Friedman:So I appreciate that, um, but I don't even remember the exact moment. Like I just started recording with my friend james, who produced this, who plays lead guitar and other instruments on on this record, and he's kindly was just like I want to help you record, and I think you know, eventually we just realized like we never explicitly were like this is going to be an ep or this is going to be a record eventually Eventually just realized we had even cut a song Like so we, we realized we had enough songs and we're just going to go out with a record, which I guess is like not super common. I think a lot of people will release EPs or singles shorter form you know collections before this, but I don't know, suddenly I just had a record's worth of stuff and then we were signed up to finish it.
Chris:So that's great, yeah, and what were some of the great lessons that you learned, as in this process, because you were involved in every step of the way. Am I correct in saying that?
Avery Friedman:Yeah, I mean yes, so even like in the room, like with this amazing mastering engineer, josh Bonatti, who's done like a lot of huge artists stuff, but yeah, I mean lots of big lessons, I think the most, the biggest one, is just that like I don't know, I really really struggled to trust that people, that this is worth people's time. I was like so like, oh my god, like this is like such a gift to me that anybody would want to give me their time and energy to like work on this. And so I think honest, and I and I had to combat a lot of sort of just insecurity and anxiety that I didn't feel in other areas of my life, just because this felt so new, so vulnerable. I think it's like really rare as adults to try something really really new. That's very scary. So it's something that we do more as kids.
Avery Friedman:But I think I learned to sort of trust like the, the process of creativity, of like even times I would leave recording and just be like, oh, I feel like I couldn't articulate myself. I feel like I that was like I wasted five of James's hours, like you know, just having these kinds of negative thoughts, like he would send me a mix from the day and then I'd be like, oh my God, like that's not so bad and like he would. He would keep showing up with enthusiasm and we met each other with a certain momentum, in a way that felt like such a gift. But I guess I, I guess the lesson is mostly just like not panicking or quitting after an imperfect time, because it all felt so new and so magical to me that sometimes, if it didn't, if I, if it was a harder day, I would question my whole thing.
Chris:Right. So I think I keep doing this, sir, exactly, and it turns out those are all just like lessons you have to learn.
Avery Friedman:Like you know, couldn't for photo booth, even like we couldn't crack that song for so long. One day we just decided let's pretty much remove my guitar playing from this entirely and just fuck around on a synth and see what happens, and then the song came to life. So it's yeah, just trusting that those things like you can't avoid the stickier moments and that the people who you're meant to collaborate with will stay in there with you, and so I'm very grateful for that.
Chris:That's amazing. What a journey to go through as well, because I mean, I'm sure every musician, when they're first doing this, is questioning you know and insecure and I don't know about this. And so if you were to look back a little bit rewind time, you've put out two singles. How do you feel people have?
Avery Friedman:I mean, I think, well, like, I feel like it's one of those things it's hard to explain. I don't know if this makes sense, but it's like. Even talking about this, I think it's probably evident to you that this is a huge deal for me to just have this just for myself, and massive it's massive, particularly if you're, if it was never on your radar to like two years ago and it's like here it is.
Chris:I'm releasing a record in a month like amazing.
Avery Friedman:It's simultaneously a huge feat for me to have done this um, but also it's also the most natural thing in the world to me, like it's the thing I know I will never tire of.
Avery Friedman:So I feel like with that it's, I have a hard time even clocking that like this is a big deal, you know for me totally and even just that someone wants to talk to me about my music like that is something that I could have never imagined a year ago, and so I think they've been received really well and I think it's also like in my brain it's so much of like I can't even believe that I did this, but I think other people it's.
Avery Friedman:They're just like oh my god, yeah, you released a song that I love, and so it's almost like the fact that it's inherently legitimate in their, in their brain, their perception. Or people that I've met later in the past year, like who know me just as a musician, like someone recently was like, oh yeah, like you're a singer, and I was like, well, yeah, I also like have a like, have a job, you know, um, so to even adopt the identity like it's cool to me that it is, it makes sense to other people that, like this is my trajectory, so totally grateful for that yeah so good, avery, I love your words like, and this journey that you're on.
Chris:I think that, like starting, musicians listening to this conversation are going to be like I can fucking do this.
Avery Friedman:I can do this. Be like I can fucking do this, I can do this.
Chris:I'm scared as hell, and I I'm anxious. My got sweaty palms. I'm like sweating all the time, not sleeping like yeah. Yeah, I'm going to do it. So the release is coming up. What, what, what is the anticipation towards the release? And then, what? What does the rest of the year hold with this record? And you and shows, and yeah, like, where are you going with this in 2025, with this new launch of new thing?
Avery Friedman:yeah, I mean it's I've been thinking about like it's, it's cool releasing singles. It allows so much attention to be on one song, but I'm really like excited to see how people respond to other songs on this record. Like I think there's a wide range and I'm just looking forward to seeing what resonates with people and I'm like I hope people listen to the whole thing. I've been thinking of ways that I could like honor talking about you know we've we talked about in the beginning each song. Is this like maybe write a little something about each and publish it somewhere? Um, I don't know. So I'm really excited for it to come out, for people to hear the full range. Um, and then I'm doing an album release show in may and may 15th at union pool. So I'm excited about that. Um. And then rest of the year tbd. I I hope like a dream would be to go on a small tour. Um, haven't sorted any of that yet. And then I would love to, you know, start recording again right, right.
Chris:Does the song writing continue anyway, like?
Avery Friedman:songwriting continues on 100.
Chris:Yeah, yeah, I've got some, so things are percolating, uh I mean, I guess it's you are getting ready for this launch and stuff, because I mean, like said, it's a huge accomplishment, deserves to be recognized and and celebrated but, the idea of of the machine. The machine's going to keep rolling Like I hope to, I hope to keep rolling.
Avery Friedman:I that's. The biggest gift is that I think that this is something that I will never like put back away for long. Yeah.
Chris:Amazing, good, good. Well, I really appreciate you taking some time and I really enjoyed your stories of of your journey so far and I am so excited for you, for for April it's a full record like listeners like get the whole thing. One bleeds into the next. It's just a complete, really solid outing. If you can get a show in, go see her support as much as you can um. Is this coming out on vinyl? Are you just doing digital for now?
Avery Friedman:it is coming out on vinyl and tape. Nice, yeah, so vinyl will be a few months after um.
Chris:So yeah, we'll have to get our hands on one of those, that's for sure thank you so much.
Avery Friedman:I really enjoyed this interview. I feel like you're a very present and thoughtful interviewer, so I appreciate that well, I appreciate that.
Chris:Um, this has been a lot of fun. All the best with the new record people coming in april. New thing um avery friedman, amazing um all the best, and I hope that you come back once those songs that are percolating are set to be released again.
