Barefoot Fred is a jam rock-inspired country outfit from Woodstock, Illinois. The six-piece's music is heavy on improvisation, often stretching songs out well past the five-minute mark to allow for funky breakdowns, classic rock styled guitar solos and healthy amounts of lively percussion workouts that have helped make the band a popular live act throughout the Midwest. In addition to the typical guitar, drums and bass instrumentation format you'd expect from a band with Barefoot Fred's rollicking style, the group also incorporates keyboards and synthesizers into its sound--further adding to the high-energy, engaging sets that have won it slots at some popular music festivals across the United States.
