Foreign Slippers is the brainchild of singer, songwriter, illustrator and all-round creative type Gabi Froden, an ex-choir girl and cover band frontwoman who’s decided to turn her many talents to thoughtful, avant garde pop. ‘Avalanche’ is the lead single from the London-via-Sweden outfit’s forthcoming debut album Farewell To The Old Ghosts, and thanks to Froden’s earthy growl, debuted splendidly in a great sweeping chorus, it’s spooky and sweet in all the right places.
