About the artists

FREEQUENCY3 smiling into the cameras wearing a light blue bandana around their forehead. Behind and in front of them are walls painted the same light blue, and orange.

FREEQUENCY3

FREEQUENCY3, the dynamic Alternative Hip-Hop force hailing from Manchester, isn't just about beats and rhymes – they're on a mission. Through their music, they delve deep into the labyrinth of emotions, values, and life's myriad ripples, painting a vivid picture of existence with chronic pain. With a unique blend of freestyle and meticulously crafted lyrics, FREEQUENCY3 takes you on a soul-stirring journey, highlighting the power of music in navigating pain. Having shared stages with luminaries like Dizraeli during their UK Tour and even gracing Snoop Dogg's 'CalibySnoop' Cypher for the UK launch of his wine, FREEQUENCY3 is no stranger to making waves in the industry.

Celebratory Cake

Celebratory Cake are a young and eccentric acoustic rock duo that play louder than their clothes. With the release of their debut single "if only we could time travel", they've gained notoriety in the local community and beyond.
