Rune Robert Friis & Built for Comfort

In January 2022, the band released their debut album, Built For Comfort, Vol. 1, which Bluesnews.no described as “... a positive discovery. Raw, tight and atmospheric.” Meanwhile, the American magazine Blues Blast Magazine wrote: “These Danes are a blessing to the blues ...”.

In August 2024, the band followed up with Built For Comfort, Vol. 2, which has also received widespread critical acclaim. French music magazine ZiCaZic.com praised the album for “an utterly uninhibited approach to music, appreciated as much for its exceptional vocal performances as for its meticulous instrumentation ...”, while Sweden’s Jefferson Blues Magazine called it “an excellent example of modern blues from Northern Europe ...”.

Following the success of these two critically acclaimed releases, the band is set to release their third album, Borderlands, in the summer of 2027. The album will take listeners on an even deeper journey into the lives, emotions and raw spirit of the borderlands.

On stage, the band is known as a powerful and accomplished live act, balancing intimacy with intensity. Their extensive touring has taken them to venues and festivals throughout Denmark and abroad, including Mojo Blues Bar in Copenhagen, Crossroads in Vejle, Viborg Bluesforening, Kløften Festival and Baltic Blues Festival.

Built For Comfort invites audiences up close to their heartfelt songs before taking them on a thrilling ride through waves of raw, blues-infused energy.
