Freaking Snap
FreakingSnap is the solo project of Chris Friesen. Spontaneous electronic compositions.
FreakingSnap is primarily fueled by coffee and pancakes, sweet glorious IPAs, at least 1 of the 3 available 1882 Fruit Based Hot Sauces, special occasion lemon meringue pies, pug photos from Kevin, a desire to to fill an entire iPod Classic with itself so its internal narcissist can only listen to itself, bad inside jokes and a lot of love for Lost and Michael Giacchino’s score for said program. I also have no real idea of what I’m doing most of the time except here (picture a picture of me sitting at The Nook), I know exactly how to methodically decimate a plate of pancakes, side of bacon and a couple of cups of coffee at The Nook. Anyone that wants to join me sometime hit me up. FreakingSnap is the solo musical project of Winnipeg artist Chris Friesen and also a Scorpio.
