Freewheel Rollin'
After the success of the debut and sophomore editions of their heavy metal themed series of events, entitled ‘Insurrection’, featuring underground heavy metal sensations such as Shepherd, The Down Troddence, Dark Desolation and Neolithic Silence, Sound Awake are back with ‘ Freewheel Rollin’ ’, a
gig with thematic leanings towards the lighter side of music and which according to the organizers is an attempt to bring the fans of classic rock, alternative rock, blues and funk together under one roof thus providing a platform to resurrect the counterculture and post-rock movement of the 60’s and 80’s-early 90’s.
