YES!~
World Class Musician, and Friend FREEBO makes what seems his 10th appearance here in Brevard in about as many years. And we always welcome his return with open arms!
Freebo, if you don't already know is a top bassist/sideman (having worked with Bonnie Raitt, John Mayall, CSN, Maria Muldaur, Ringo Starr and many others). He's also an award-winning singer/songwriter (L.A. Music Awards “Best Folk Artist”, winner ’07 South Florida Folk Festival Songwriting Contest, 5 nominations in 5 categories JPF Awards, 2 songs in top 10 of International Songwriting Contest).
We had Freebo perform at Kool Beanz several times. The first time sharing the stage with John Hall and Robbie Dupree, then debuting the first solo disc of his career "The End of The Beginning". If you've not had a chance to see him, this show is a must. Besides being one the most talented musicians I know, Freebo is funny, warm, outspoken, and has a great command of the stage.
Since then, he has release several more wonderful discs including "Dog People", and "Before the Separation".

Last year when I had the pleasure of interviewing Freebo on the Acoustic Record radio show. We talked about his long career, his work with Bonnie Raitt, John Hall and others, politics and much more. Here are a few performance clips from the interview for your listening pleasure. If you like what you hear, I hope we get to see you all at the show...if you are not near by, visit www.freebo.com and pick up some of the man's music!
