Award-winning folk duo Alice Howe and Freebo coming to Alnmouth
An award-winning folk duo are bringing their show to Northumberland this October.
Rock bass legend Freebo weaves his fretless stylings into Alice’s Howe’s soulful, impeccably-tuned vocals for a harmony-driven performance showcasing two uniquely compelling songwriters.
Following the release of their live album last year, the duo have announced a UK tour, arriving in Alnmouth’s Hindmarsh Hall on October 24.
Freebo is a genuine folk, rock, and blues icon who has toured and recorded with some of the greatest artists of his generation, and is best known for his ten years as bassist with Bonnie Raitt.
His fretless bass can be heard on records by John Mayall, Ringo Starr, Crosby Stills & Nash, Maria Muldaur, Joe Walsh, Dr. John, and many more.
Freebo is also a multi award-winner and finalist in numerous songwriting contests, was recognized as Best Folk Artist by the Los Angeles Music Awards, and has appeared on Saturday Night Live, The Muppet Show, The Midnight Special, and in concert with the Legendary Spinal Tap.
Alice Howe had the honor of being named Best Female Artist at the International Acoustic Music Awards.
Her poetic lyrics and melodic sensibilities take center stage on her latest solo album Circumstance, produced by Freebo.
Their latest album Alice Howe & Freebo Live debuted as the number one most played album on the Folk Radio Charts, and also landed on its top ten albums of 2025.
