14 March 2007:
Future funk, fakes and freaky sidesteps!
Fat Freddys Drop has been confirmed to play at the NZ Millennium Cup in Palma 19 June 2007.
Fat Freddy’s Drop is first and foremost a live band, no two Freddy’s gigs are the same as the midnight marauders improvise and jam mystic supernovas of future funk, fakes and freaky sidesteps.
Fitchie says “What's great about live performance is that it belongs to those in the audience on that night, it's a one off experience”.
The watershed year for the purveyors of hi-tek soul was 2005 as the band stepped out of the rush to release their debut studio album Based On A True Story on CD and double gatefold vinyl.
In October 2005 Freddy’s garnered a stash of Tui Awards at the NZ Music Awards
Freddy’s then traveled to London in December 05 to pick up the Worldwide Album Of The Year at the Radio 1 Gilles Peterson Worldwide Music Awards 2005
At the NZ Music Awards 2006, Freddy’s picked up three awards: Highest Selling; Best Video and the coveted, People’s Choice Award
