One of the most distinctive qualities about Freedom Fry is that, more than most boy/girl indie-pop duos, their songs sound like conversations, giving listeners the feeling they are eavesdropping. So it is with “The Wilder Mile,” the title track to the forthcoming EP (out next week) from Michigan-born Bruce Driscoll and Parisian Marie Seyrat. The L.A.-based duo’s vocals fashion an interesting dynamic – his a folk troubadour’s croon, hers a French chanteuse’s lilt. It’s downright charming, and in the brisk new single, a little whistling doesn’t hurt either. Have some spring in your step.
