FREE ENERGY STUCK ON NOTHING OUT NOW DIGITALLY
Casting Call For NEW “Bang Pop” Video, Meet The Band
“I loved making that record. It was so good to record guitars again.I kind of forgot
that I used to be really good at that — recording guitars.” – James Murphy
“It totally fucking rules! Lighters up!” – Rolling Stone
a good-time 1970s rock rip of epic proportions… unbridled and, in
the spirit of things, totally rad (Best New Music)” – Pitchfork
Shortly after the release of their debut album, Stuck On Nothing, Free Energy kicked off a successful week at
SXSW including their television debut on Late Show with David Letterman, a Rolling Stone photo shoot at the
Texas State History Museum not to mention nine outrageous performances that left every audience begging for more.
The Los Angeles Times caught the band at the Fader Fort, describing frontman Paul Sprangers dance moves
as “Mick Jagger-inspired” and the band’s overall performance as “…Grade-A bar-band riffs that went down easy.”
Free Energy are taking their undeniable party anthems on the road once again! The band will be making several
headlining stops as well as performing dates with Jukebox The Ghost playing The Grand Old Day Festival
in St. Paul, MN and touring on the Daytrotter Presents: Barnstormer III along with Delta Spirit,
Ra Ra Riot, Nathaniel Rateliff and Pearly Gate Music in an intimate barn setting.
Produced by DFA’s James Murphy, Free Energy’s debut album, Stuck On Nothing, was released
digitally March 9, 2010 and will be available physically May 4, 2010 on Astralwerks/DFA Records.
Don’t miss the chance to see one of 2010’s most exciting new bands! Tour dates below.
