Music News - Fat Freddy's Drop Announce New Music 'Trickle Down' Release Day
20 July 2018 - 0 Comments
Today, Fat Freddy's Drop release their brand new single Trickle Down worldwide.
Trickle Down is an electronic-driven reaction to the politics of the day – the false economic principle of wealth trickling down from the 1% to the 99%. As they sing of running out of patience while waiting for the rain to fall, a confident, steady beat propels us forward as a sign of promise.
There's been a frenzied reaction from Freddy's fans around the world since news broke online about the worldwide release of Trickle Down. The band have a loyal local and international fan base awaiting the drop to get a first taste of a new album the band are recording as a follow-up to their earlier releases; BAYS, Blackbird, Dr Boondigga & The Big BW and record breaking Based on a True Story.
Trickle Down is released today digitally with a 12" release to follow later in 2018.
