Hometown bassist and frontman, Freekbass is representing Cincinnati as a Top 30 Award Winner for TikTok LIVE Fest, with a ceremony set to take place in January 2024, in Los Angeles, CA!

Freekbass, an innovative and funk master bass player hailing from Cincinnati, recently recorded an album called Krameria, that is high energy and enjoyable to listen to. Song by song and note for note, the album not only keeps the listeners attention with strong bass leads and vocals, but makes you want to get up and dance the night away.

"Hypnotic Woman" is the newest single from funk-bassist/producer, Freekbass, and he really leans on his wizardry powers for this one, concocting a potion of mega-talents from several genres.

CincyMusic LIVE has teamed up with CincyGroove and Cinci Folk Alliance to raise money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society with a Live Stream with some of our favorite bands and artists.

Freekbass & The Bump Assembly have a new EP, Krameria coming out soon on vinyl! The EP was produced by Eddie Roberts, of The New Mastersounds, at Color Red Studios in Denver, CO.
