Freeway Jubilee @ Pisgah Brewing Co. 7-27-2019
Dedicated song crafting has always been the cornerstone of The Freeway Jubilee. A collective of multiple song-writers formed in Asheville in 2015, the group has maintained a heavy tour schedule since their inception and forged a true brotherhood on the road. Always striving to evoke joyful emotions in their listeners, the band continues to use their lyrics and powerful vocal harmonies as a window into the human experience and the life of a traveling band on the current American landscape. Their refreshing and explosive blend of psychedelic southern rock, gospel roots, mountain music, funk and soul translates into a genre-dissolving sound that feels strangely familiar yet remains entirely unique to itself.
Formerly dubbed ‘The Freeway Revival’, the group has been turning heads all over the east coast with their energetic sound, continually growing a dedicated grassroots fan base. They have shared the stage with artists like Dumpstaphunk, Lukas Nelson, Melvin Seals, Everyone Orchestra, Big Something, Zach Deputy, Keller Williams, Toubab Krewe, Dangermuffin and many other great national and regional artists. After the successful release of their 2016 self-titled EP, The Freeway Revival burst onto the scene in the fall of 2017 with their heavy hitting debut album “Revolution Road”, which appeared as #20 on Jambands.com National Radio Charts. Joining the roster of the Homegrown Music Network in 2018, Freeway continues to show relentless work ethic and a prolific sense of creativity. With the addition of Hunter Parker on saxophone (formerly of Psylo Joe), and Freddie Barry on guitar in the stead of former guitarist Tim Husk, the band has stepped into a bigger and bolder sound in 2019, evolving into what is now The Freeway Jubilee. With excitement, positivity and creativity fueling the fire and with a new album on the horizon, Freeway seems poised to bring The Jubilee to a wider audience.
