NEW YORK - July 13, 2016 - PRLog -- Breakout singer/songwriter Brielle Von Hugel, who has amassed nearly three million hits in less than three weeks with her "Dangerous Woman" cover on Facebook, has signed a recording contract with F.R.E.E.D.O.M. Records. Having been spotlighted at the age of 16 as a Top 12 girls' semi-finalist on season 11 of American Idol, Von Hugel's soulful, emotive style gives her a distinct connection with her audience and has caused her popularity to soar.

With over 2 million views amassed on her YouTube channel, Von Hugel continues to ride high on the success and popularity that she's increasingly gained from her viral cover songs. The budding starlet is elated to have just signed a recording contract with F.R.E.E.D.O.M.

The newly-launched F.R.E.E.D.O.M. Records plans to sign unique talent and spearhead out-of-the-box campaigns. As a label that knows good music, the executives are using a critical ear to handpick artists who are extraordinarily gifted.

"I very rarely encounter a music artist that possesses the 'total package,'" says F.R.E.E.D.O.M. Records executive and industry veteran Tim "Dawg" Patterson. "Normally they come lacking in certain areas. Five minutes into listening to Brielle, I knew F.R.E.E.D.O.M. struck gold! Brielle Von Hugel is the 'Total Package!'"
