Many know composer-performer Joshua Fried for RADIO WONDERLAND's steering wheel and shoes, others know him for putting headphones on some of Downtown NYC's most mercurial stars of the 1990s and 2000s, and still others for his collaborations with pop stars They Might Be Giants. In the 80s he signed to Atlantic Records as a dance music artist. In the 90s he became the youngest composer discussed in Schirmer Books' American Music in the 20th Century. Fried's production credits include Chaka Khan, Ofra Haza, and avant drone-master David First. His recordings have been released by free103point9, Trace Label, clang, Tellus and Atlantic Records.
