From the underground to the higher-ground, Fat Freddys Drop is an unstoppable hi-tek soul monster doing it for the love of music. First and foremost a live collective, no two Freddy's gigs are ever the same. The hypnotic live jam is the essence for Freddy's hybrid of dub and reggae, soul, funk and hip hop marinated in jazz and served on Island Time. Established in 1999, Freddys' watershed year was 2005 when the bros dropped debut full-length album, 'Based On A True Story', re-writing musical history at home and unleashing Freddys slow burning voodoo worldwide. In late 2008, following three solid years of songs being road tested in tours across the seven seas and some intense studio lockdown, Fat Freddys Drop were ready to pull the catch and release their next works. Their second album'Dr Boondigga & The Big BW' finally saw the light in 2009, followed by a live release in 2010. And while their international profile has slowly, steadily been rising, they have lost none of their independent spirit, still doing things very much at their own pace. This massive three part show was recorded at Live Music Hall, Cologne, in the fall of 2010.
