"To miss them live is to grossly cheat yourself of easily one of the best live bands Vancouver has to offer." - Mark Bignell CFRO 102.7 Vancouver Co-Op Radio
Who is Freeflow? For anyone who’s seen the band perform, the answer is simple; they’re an energetic band that brings people out of their seats with a compelling combination of deep grooves, great hooks, haunting vocal harmonies, and a raucous stage presence.
A much greater challenge, however, is describing Freeflow’s sound, which features everything from soul and funk, to reggae and rock. They have often been compared to bands like Sublime and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, yet have nurtured a sound distinctively their own. “We have five members in the band, with very different musical tastes but lots of common ground,” says lead singer Jason Evans. “What we try to do is combine the music that feels the best to us. We can’t help but fuse elements.”
Since founding members Jason Evans (vocals), Ryan Davis (drums), Simon Davies (bass) and Wilson Padmos (keys) first started collaborating in 2001, the band’s music has ever evolved – something that is more than obvious to anyone who has seen the band live or listened to Freeflow’s two well-received full length CD’s. The dynamic of the band has since blossomed and has encouraged Freeflow to push it’s sound and live performance to new and exciting levels.
2010 has welcomed a new addition to the Freeflow family. Guitarist Jay Leonard Juatco, a charismatic stage performer, is a graduate of the Berkeley College of Music, and has honed his skills through the clubs of Boston, New York and Montreal, as well as international shows in China and Mexico. Although Freeflow has been together for 10 years, and has played great festivals and venues with world-class luminaries, the band looks to the future with even greater expectations.
