FREAKY AGE are an alternative rock band from Brussels who have been hitting Belgium hard in the past year with their energetic rock n' roll and explosive live shows. Boring indie this is not. With an average age of 18, they have already achieved enviable success: a testament to the maturity of their craft, despite their young age.
In April 2008, they released self-produced debut album ‘Every Morning Breaks Out’ on V2 Records (Benelux) and spent the rest of the year playing over 120 gigs in Belgium, France and Holland, including prominent festivals such as PukkelPop and Les Ardentes. A weekly series, by music channel Jim TV, followed the band on tour throughout the festival season.
The band have built up a solid and increasing fanbase and Radio, TV and Press attention have been huge with debut single ‘Time Is Over’ charting at Number 5 on Studio Brussel (equivalent to BBC Radio 1); second single ‘Where Do We Go Now’ spending 4 weeks at Number 1 (23 weeks in the charts in total) and third single ‘Every Morning Breaks Out’ currently achieving similar success.
Recent nominations for Best Alternative Band, Best Breakthrough and Best Song for Belgium’s Music Industry Awards (MIA's) and MTV/TMF Awards have only affirmed the success of 2008. 2009 offers up an equally busy year for the band with more gigs, festivals, a support tour with The Undertones in Holland, a newly released single and a second album in the pipeline.
