Hungry…
This is perhaps the most accurate way to describe the culmination of
musicians that manifests in the form of Barefoot Fred. Through constant
self challenge, Barefoot Fred continues to push the limits of
songwriting and live performance. With a dedication to quality,
consistency, and an elevated passion for music, the band allows itself
to take on various musical forms and explore the space that can open up
new doors of expression.
Fate
alone brought six seasoned musicians together to form Barefoot Fred in
2008. Though each had honed his craft through gigs in and around
Chicago, the combination made the whole even greater than the sum of its
parts. It is through their unique interplay that Barefoot Fred comes
alive. With an obligation to constant growth and improvement, Barefoot
Fred’s sound is not limited to any specific musical style. Although
rooted in the pure American concept of improvisation, their music is
structured in such a way that specific ideas and themes can be drawn
from each song. Though they have crafted a sound all their own, one can
hear the seamless fusion of rock, funk, bluegrass, reggae, jazz,
country, and blues combined with world influences throughout their
consistently growing catalogue of music.
Barefoot
Fred has quickly made a significant impact on their growing and loyal
fan base. From their very first gig they have proven that they are a
musical force to be reckoned with; while their more recent gigs have
demonstrated that each show will be better than the last. Barefoot Fred
brings a significant following of fans to each show and always leaves
with more fans than they brought. Worship the Sun, their first LP, will
be a reflection of the musical themes, concepts, and dedication that
Barefoot Fred insists upon delivering to its fans. “A journey of a
thousand miles must begin with a single step.” - Lao Tzu (as compiled
from the bands website).
