A venue well known to Freetown followers, fans can look forward to the transformation of the space towards a relaxed, off-stage, up-close atmosphere. guitar duo: Freetown Collective lead vocalist Lou Lyons on the mic as fellow guitarist Jayron “Rawkus” Remy looks on. For the Freetown Collective sextet, rounded out by percussionist Sheena Richardson, also known as Ajibola, and keyboardist Odelwle Daniel, the mission is simply to connect with fans, delivering engaging, accessible performances over a series of five intimate concerts in as many weeks.
In typical Freetown fashion, this year’s tour has been tapping the wider circle of the Freetown family of performers, so far making space for three-time National Poetry Slam Champion Alexandra Stewart, at Beyond Yoga Studio on May 29, and Tobago’s hip-hop/soul artiste Xav, at Beverly’s Oasis Suites on June 6. The 2024 Tight Spaces Acoustic Tour is flanked by the May release of their latest single, “Rainy Morning” (a collaboration with producer Dwala),.
