About this concert
Scarborough debut for this superb duo.
In 2016 Alice Howe from Boston, Massachusetts attended the Folk Alliance Conferencem where she met Freebo, Bonnie Raitt's bassist for over a decade. Alice had found her ideal collaborator and they have worked and toured together ever since.
In 2019 she recorded he debut album 'Visions' and in early 2023 recorded her latest 'Circumstance' as Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals. The album saw her breaking out into a wider American music world, weaving together a tapestry of rock, soul, and blues, all anchored by her rich soprano voice. In April 2024, she embarks on her first UK Tour since 2018.
Support will come from Freebo, who is noted for his work with Bonnie Raitt over 9 years in the 70's. He has also performed with the likes of Ringo Starr, Aaron Neville and CS&N. He is a respected producer and has recorded five solo albums.

Freebo Biography
Freebo is a genuine folk, rock and blues icon who, after over 40 years of recording and touring with many of the great artists of our time (Bonnie Raitt 10 years, CSN, Maria Muldaur, John Mayall, Ringo Starr, Dr. John, Neil Young, & many more) is regarded as one of the most gifted singer-songwriters of today. A multi award winner and finalist in numerous songwriting contests, Freebo was also recognized as the 'Best Folk Artist 2007' by the Los Angeles Music Awards. In addition, he has appeared on Saturday Night Live, The Muppet Show, The Midnight Special, and in concert with the legendary Spinal Tap.
Freebo’s compassionate concern for the world and people around him, as evidenced both in his lyrics and his open stage banter, has helped him connect with listeners worldwide. He will take an audience from insights about what kind of positive mark we hope to leave on the world upon our own passing with “Standing Ovation” to where you stand with your pets and your partner with "She Loves My Dog More Than Me." A musical evening with Freebo will be astute, insightful, clever, and truly melodic.
