Frijid Pink

70s Detroit Psychedelic Rock Band

Frijid Pink is an American rock band that was formed in Detroit, Michigan, in 1967. The band initially gained recognition for their heavy, blues-driven sound that was quite popular during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Frijid Pink's self-titled debut album, "Frijid Pink," released in 1970, included their most famous single, a distorted guitar-driven version of "House of the Rising Sun," which became an international hit. Following the success of their first album, they released "Defrosted" later the same year. Their third album, "Earth Omen," was released in 1972. The band underwent several lineup changes throughout its career and experienced fluctuating levels of success. Despite never quite reaching the heights of their early achievements again, Frijid Pink has maintained a cult following and has been recognized for their contributions to the heavy rock and psychedelic music scenes of their era.
