Announcing The Freakout Weekender
The Freakout Weekender is April 1st and 2nd, 2022 FIND TICKETS
Freakout Records and The Crocodile are proud to present the Freakout Weekender on April 1st and 2nd, 2022. The multi-venue, multi-cultural Seattle music festival will feature over 40 artists from around the globe, including Antibalas, Austra, Molly Burch, Armand Hammer, Efterklang, Surfbort, Tunde Olaniran, Cobra Man, Public Memory, Mintfield, and many more.
This eclectic lineup includes bands from Mexico, Denmark, Brazil, Argentina, France, Canada, as well as a ton of emerging talent from our own backyard. Rising hip-hop stars Armand Hammer and garage rockers The Bobby Lees will be making the trek out from New York City, along with afro-beat veterans Antibalas. There will be no shortage of noisy punk rock, as we are eager to present Surfbort, NIIS, Pink Fuzz, and Mexico/Seattle supergroup Mala Suerte. Tenacious D founder Kyle Gass will also be tearing up the stage with his band. As is usual with Freakout Fest, there will be a slate of acts from Latin America, including Atalhos, Isla de Caras, Películas Geniales, Lorelle Meets the Obsolete, Mint Field, and Margaritas Podridas. Expect a mountain of soul from singer/songwriter Molly Burch, LA outfit Brainstory, crooner Joshy Soul, and local Seattle star Shaina Shepherd.
“The Freakout is coming to Belltown with a super nuanced and incredible bill. One wristband and fans will get to all three venues at The ("new") Crocodile plus Belltown Yacht Club across the street and 48 really unique artists. Highlights for me are Antibalas, Kyle Gass (of Tenacious D), Austra, Cobra Man, Ed Schraeder's Music Beat, Tunde Olaniran + so much more.” Said Hunter Motto, Talent Buyer for The Crocodile.
With so much uncertainty on the horizon, you can always count on Freakout to expand your minds, open your hearts, and deliver the best damn rock & roll shows in the U.S. of A.
