"Public Preception"

Freeman still understands music via his instinct and his ears. Audience members often come to him after a set and ask him how much of it was made up on the spot. “All of it,� he says. Fiancée April Adams, also a musician, says audience members are struck by the originality of his act. “Nobody else does that, she says. “Every time someone sees him, it’s something they’ve never seen before. It’s a new sound a new way of putting beatbox with improvisation and a capella.� Freeman has about six songs he can successfully remember the lyrics to, he says, and the rest is improvised. - Article by Marisa Demarco mdemarco@abqtrib.com/

Bio

I am influenced by my parents and Bobby McFerrin and Polynesian communal signing. I am influenced by black choirs and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. I listen to Afro-pop to get a sense of long complex grooves and I listen to punk to understand three chord thunder.
I pull it all together in 3 minutes. I loop the beat, sing the rhythms and drop the bass…then I sing my freedom over the top.
