Friko’s sophomore album, Something Worth Waiting For, sees the newly expanded quartet fill into bigger, older, and wiser shoes. It is a passionate collection of tracks steeped in restless optimism and a lucidity to the sadness of life, coupled with sweeping arrangements and their signature expressive vocals.

If you’ve never seen someone scream into the hollow of an acoustic guitar mid-song, then you clearly weren’t at Friko’s sold out show celebrating the release of their newest album, Something Worth Waiting For.
