Philadelphia’s Free Energy is set to release their debut album, Stuck On Nothing, produced by DFA’s James Murphy, digitally on March 9th with the physical copy to drop on May 4th via Astralwerks/DFA Records.
Opening the album and lead by a simple cowbell, the 70’s inspired self titled track “Free Energy” will get stuck in your head for days! “All I Know,” a lovesick pop-ballad, highlights the band’s unique sound seamlessly by incorporating dirty guitar riffs and bongo drums. The beat-driven repetitive lyrics of “Bang Pop” make for an irresistible party anthem.
To pimp the album, Free Energy is embarking on a national tour throughout February and March with Foreign Born, kicking off tonight at the Echo in Los Angeles (all dates below).
