Fat Freddy's Drop / Lock-In 2xLP Vinyl

Fat Freddy’s Drop presents the ‘LOCK-IN’ album, a sonic moment in time as the band jam-conscious songs of freedom and hope for a generation. During the pandemic lockdown, the studio session was captured at the iconic Michael Fowler Centre in the band’s hometown of Wellington, New Zealand. Devoid of an audience, it reflects the surreal times that halted tour life in 2020.

The band re-located their BAYS studio to the MFC and set up in a circle on the MFC stage for the recording, providing a unique space to jam slow-burn classics such as ‘Soldier’, ‘Hope’ and ‘This Room’ as well as test drive ‘Avengers’ a brand new track in the making. The other tracks recorded are ‘Special Edition’, ‘Six-Eight’, ‘OneFourteen’ and ‘Trickle Down’ from ‘Special Edition Part 1’, the band’s most recent album.

Western Audio recorded the crisp multi-track production and monster mix back at BAYS studio by DJ Fitchie, Freddy's beat master and producer mastering at Calyx studio in Berlin.

The ‘LOCK-IN’ session melds Freddy's fastidious studio chops and love of freewheeling jams with a tautness that comes from 21 years in the business and a reputation as one of the finest live draws in the world.
