(NZ) FAT FREDDY'S DROP: March 2006.

Future Classic, The Drop & Triple J‚s Roots'n'All presents
Fat Freddy's Drop Australian Tour 2006

Having won the hearts of Australian audiences last year in their promptly sold out national tour, Fat Freddy's Drop return to Oz to deliver another live installment of their hypnotic voodoo dub and future soul grooves.

Since their last visit the Freddys have continued to add jewels to their crown with their debut album Based On A True Story now reaching 5 x platinum status in NZ where it has sailed back up to number one in the charts.

Indeed the dream of world domination for the seven headed soul monster is fast becoming a reality. In December Fitchie and the bro's traveled to London to pick up Worldwide Album Of The Year at the Radio 1 Gilles Peterson Worldwide Music Awards 2005 as voted by international fans that tune in to the tastemaker's show on the BBC.

But as those who have seen them in the flesh will know, this is first and foremost a live band and it is on stage that the magic truly happens. No two Freddy's gigs are the same as the midnight marauders improvise and jam each song into mystic supernovas of future funk, fakes and freaky sidesteps.
