Friends of Mine is the second solo album by anti-folk musician Adam Green, released on July 22, 2003. It relies heavily on short violin-driven melodramatic pop songs and has a much more polished sound than Garfield, Green's 2002 debut album. A sophomore studio album, the recording is noted for containing vocal stylings that are considered to be a departure from those of Green's previous work (including that of The Moldy Peaches), showcasing a deeper 1960s-influenced spin sound feel to the recording.
