Alice Howe and Freebo present a unique study in contrasts -- think 1970s rock / Laurel Canyon songwriters with real instruments, no autotune, and a genuine folk soul.

These collaborators present a study in contrasts with one a rising voice in Americana music and the other a venerable rock, folk, and blues icon. Compelling performers in their own right, together they lead and support each other in their well-crafted songs sung with flawless harmonies. Freebo seamlessly blends his unique fretless bass stylings with Howe’s honest, emotionally resonant singing.

Howe, who grew up in the Boston suburb of Newton, MA, is known for her soaring and soulful vocals. She was named Best Female Artist at the 2023 International Acoustic Music Awards. Freebo is best known for his decade of touring and recording with Bonnie Raitt. He has distinguished himself as one of the great bassists of our time, playing on recordings with Maria Muldaur, John Mayall, Ringo Starr, Dr. John, and Neil Young as well as appearing on Saturday Night Live, The Midnight Special, The Muppet Show, and in concert with the legendary Spinal Tap.

Not willing to simply rest on these achievements, Freebo has become a highly-regarded singer/songwriter, now working on his sixth full-length solo CD. A multi-award winner and finalist in numerous songwriting contests, Freebo’s music reflects his compassionate concern for the world and people around him, and his lyrics and open stage banter have helped him connect with listeners worldwide and audiences from England to Italy to the Netherlands.

“To hear Alice Howe sing is to be enraptured by the natural, unaffected beauty of her voice.” --The Record Review
