Pat Burgener is an Swiss indie folk artist who transitioned from Olympic snowboarding to music, has joined forces with his brother Oddbox (Max Burgener) to release their latest single, “Free”. This track marks a powerful addition to Pat’s discography and showcases a compelling collaboration between the two siblings.
With its vintage folk and country undertones, “Free” is a refreshing blend of soulful melodies and modern production, thanks to Oddbox’s innovative touch. Based in London and with a reputation for multi-genre production, Oddbox’s expertise shines through, elevating the track with reverb-soaked guitar strums and a crisp, contemporary sound.
“Free” is an anthem of self-empowerment and liberation. Burgener’s heartfelt and buoyant vocals convey a message of self-actualisation and hope, resonating deeply with listeners. The track’s uplifting energy is matched by its poignant lyrics, reflecting Pat’s belief in freedom as a fundamental human right—a right that should be accessible to all, regardless of background.
The accompanying music video enhances this message with its blend of intimate camcorder-style shots and crisp, modern visuals. Featuring scenes of Pat and friends embracing the freedom of sunset beaches, surfing, and skating, the video beautifully complements the song’s themes, creating a vivid portrayal of joy and liberation.
Influenced by artists such as Ben Howard and Fleetwood Mac, Pat and Oddbox craft a sound that resonates with fans of The Lumineers and Mumford & Sons. “Free” is a testament to their ability to blend soulful folk with contemporary production, delivering a track that is both nostalgic and fresh.
