To date, Eleanor has released three solo studio albums, her latest being 2016’s New View, recorded with her backing band Icewater. You can catch Eleanor and band on November 10th performing at Headliners appearing with Luna. Here with the song He Didn’t Mention His Mother is Eleanor Friedberger, The Opening Act.
