Ross From Friends presents Bubble Love
Ross From Friends, AKA British producer Felix Clary Weatherall, is an esteemed electronic artist and the owner of the Scarlet Tiger label. His approach focuses on continuing to build his craftsmanship and enabling emotive storytelling through his releases. Since his breakout success on Distant Hawaii in 2016, he has forged a notable career for himself, encompassing two albums released via the revered label Brainfeeder.
A cornerstone of Ross From Friends’ music has always been the blistering 3-man live
show—comprising Felix, Jed Hampson & John Dunk—that delivers a killer blend of live
musicianship (guitar, keys and sax) and electronics and has graced stages at the likes of Coachella, Glastonbury, Primavera and Sonar to name a few. The trio have had multiple sold-out dates across tours throughout the UK, EU, Australia and North America, including festival performances at Glastonbury, Laneway AU & NZ, AVA, Portola and Parklife.
2024 saw the introduction of his new moniker Bubble Love, under which he plans to release more club focussed tracks. In an attempt to separate the developing sound of “Ross From Friends” from the frenetic dancefloor tracks he simply enjoys making, he felt like now was the time to make the distinction. “I came up with an experiment one day when I was making music on the train.” - he explains. “I told myself, let me try making a tune as if there was a digital character instructed to carry out the very first idea that came into my head.” This epiphany and experimentation birthed not only a fresh way to approach writing music, but the beginnings of a character which he plans to develop into his artistic project.
The first musical offering came in the form of “Pon De Replay” which was released as a limited time free download and he plans to bring the character further to life, DJing as Bubble Love for the foreseeable future. The rest of the year will see him play at respected venues and festivals such as, Glastonbury Festival, Lost Village Festival, Boomtown Festival, Waterworks Festival - as well as touring consistently across Europe, Asia and the United States. Sonically, Bubble Love has a string of exciting release plans and an album scheduled to be releasing this year.
