"Forget those screechy
bitches in the Darkness, and whatever those clowns at the NME say-
Freewheeler are the REAL saviours of UK rock and roll." - (Sleazegrinder)
"Those who like their rock n'roll down'n'dirty will love Freewheeler" -
(Rough Edge)
"Freewheeler practice energetic, sleaze-influenced rock revelry. Great
fun and well tuned, they are definitely the kinda band we like at
Powerplay. Think Dogs d'Amour on speed." (Powerplay Magazine)
Freewheeler were formed in the later half of 2001 in North London,
England. The band members were brought together by a love for real loud,
ballsy Rock in the vein of AC/DC, The Faces, Lynyrd Skynyrd and
The Rolling Stones.
Combining dirty boogie riffing with upbeat, sing-a-long songs, and a
dynamic live performance full of energy and excitement, Freewheeler are
here to drag Rock'n Roll kicking & screaming into the 21st Century.
They've been compared to bands like AC/DC, The Black Crowes, The
Stones, The Hellacopters and… Motley Crue! They have also
supported bands like The Supersuckers, L.A. Guns and Nashville Pussy on
recent tour dates.
In that time they have gained a good live reputation and managed to work
with producer Kit Woolven (Thin Lizzy, Dave Gilmour, Cradle of Filth
etc) and Doug Hall (Iron Maiden, Testament, WASP etc).
The current e.p. "Whiskey & The Pills" has gained outstanding reviews
and praise from all corners of the industry and is set to be released on
a split CD on Nov 15th '03 on Sleazey Records.
