Documented collaborators

Friends formed in Brooklyn in 2010 (originally under the name Perpetual Crush) and quickly carved out a distinctive space in the indie pop scene with a blend of disco, funk, and catchy indie sensibilities. The group released early singles in 2011, including Friend Crush and I'm His Girl, establishing a playful yet sharp aesthetic that would influence later indie outfits. Their debut album Manifest! arrived in June 2012, featuring the single Mind Control and bringing them wider attention across the UK and US. After a short run, the group released The Way in 2013 as their final single before disbanding in 2013. While public-facing social channels are largely archival today, Friends’ catalog continues to resonate for fans of late-2000s and early-2010s indie pop. Here you’ll find a concise overview of their biography, discography highlights, and essential archival links for deeper exploration.
