The name "Fresh Ré" means "The Next Generation;" it's a new epoch in time, and it is represented by the youth of it's members. But before taking a listen to these youngin's doing it big overseas, theres just five things you should know about them before they dominate the globe.
1)They might not all be old enough to drive, but they provide your
car’s soundtrack: Robert (13) and Ashlee (17) (brother and sister), Cian
(17), Daryl (17) and Harrison (17) make up the group. The
group met in school in Ireland, and they live in the same estate.
2) These sensations had a platform on YouTube: Harrison and Rob, two of their
members, played a cover of Rihanna’s “We Found Love,” which went viral with 4
million views on YouTube. Harrison is the rapper/guitarist, Robert and Ashlee are singers, and Cian and Daryl play guitar and keyboard. Together they've also done covers of Labrinith’s “Express Yourself” and Bruno Mars' “Locked Out of Heaven.”
3) The big wigs are taking notice: Their coolness has spread to a few trend
spotters, like Robbie Williams, who invited them on tour with him just
a few months ago. JJ Cook from Criminal Minds is also a fan, and so is One
Direction’s Liam Payne (who tweeted their “We Found Love” cover last
September, and has been sending Directioners over to their YouTube in droves).
Hopefully this magnifying glass on their talent will lead them to work with who
they really aspire to link, acts including Justin Bieber, Alicia Keys, Black Eyed Peas and
Rihanna.
4) Success is knocking on their door: Fresh Ré trended Twitter in their country before their release of their single "Young." When they released "Young" on December 13, 2013, it knocked Robin Thicke’s “Blurred
Lines" off of the #1 spot for two days on Ireland's ITunes R&B/Soul Chart. They followed that up with their first headline show in the Academy of Dublin on December 21,
2013.
5) They’re not your average kids, but they’re still
kids: Fresh Ré writes their own material, such as their single “Young,” about
having a forever youthful spirit. Though these unsigned talents work hard, they are regular kids
at heart who enjoy doing just about what every other kid does, including
playing Xbox and skating.
