Glas

Lisbet Fritze and Louise Foo have shared artistic trajectories for half of their lives, having been two thirds of pop noir purveyors Giana Factory. As Glas, the duo reveals a patchwork of everyday observations rooted in significant life changes: moving countries, becoming a mother, keeping sane with and without a significant other. The music conveys a quest for balance, riding the line between doomy drama and playing it cool.

The Copenhagen-based duo have never been short on inspiration. Lisbet has lent her vocal and guitar talents to Trentemøl- ler, in both the studio and on stage. Louise has explored immersive music with avant-pop project SØSTR, along with her sister, Sharin Foo of The Raveonettes. Lisbet’s other life involves architectural design. Louise works with sound installations in a visual arts context. The musical ideas of these two polymaths find coherence in the newly-formed Glas.

The world’s first exposure to Glas came in September of 2023, with the release of “Melting Point”. Capturing the emotion and fragility of an uncertain journey into motherhood, it moves from woozy pop to a full-flow power groove, before the chorus confesses “I’ve never been here before.” Pulsing moments of panic build before the song reaches an abrupt conclusion.
