It's election season again! Instead of choosing between two brutally opposing enemies, we're going with the only choice that makes us groove our bodies.
Our hometown sweethearts, SoftSpot, is up for "Artist of the Month" for The Deli magazine! If you're unsure of who Softspot is, it's a beautiful day outside and you deserve a treat. Get your eargrapes on this, they will thank you.
Also, the voting process could be aesthetically easier, so we've made a very official map for you:
Also in the news, Softspot is in the midst of an east coast tour at the moment! Track em' down! Wiggle your fingers! Your joyfingers!
Monday, you are spectacular!

Our dearest dear of all the dears,
Seasick Mama who runs the brilliantly charged House of Creatives will be in Wilmington tonight for a tasty listening party of her new EP, Dead Like Money! Come to Satellite to give the little lady a warm welcome to Wilmington and wallow in the collective freak!
You may recognize Seasick Mama from a past Freaker life of howdyrowdys:
She is the foxy fox with limbs in between Zach's legs. Obviously.
(See you there, or something about squares.)

Dear Wilmington,

It will surely be a night that will leave you scrambling to recollect all of your thoughts into one coherent memory. All ages are welcome! YEAHYUH!
See you tomorrow, FREAKS!
Love,
The Freakerteam
P.S.
Dress up. Get down. Costume contests abound!

Bill Mooney from Kung Fu Nation brought a nice little tidbit to our morning routine today! Evidently, Billboard has revealed their inner freak! In an article highlighted Wilco's unconventional merch gear this year, Freakers were considered among the oddest. We are honored! Get your very own special love infested Wilco Freaker here!
Among the other showcased Wilco curiosities is a dog collar made from the same fabric as Jeff Tweedy's guitar straps.
Oh! The joy!

Tuesday night, Wilco's new album, The Whole Love, was officially released and they rocketed off into space (AKA Raleigh) with the first show of their tour! Our long lost (but soon to be returned) Oliver Mellan, our dearest of dears Justin Mitchener and the wonderwoman herself, Leigh Voli were able to wallow in the glory. Our Wilco Freakers also made their formal debut, and let me tell you - they felt like the prettiest girl at the party.
Wilco will be on tour until December, and when they start inching towards you, it's highly recommended not to miss it.
Also! Wilmington! This Saturday at Edge of Urge there will be a listening party with Gravity Records and Freaker USA and lots of goodies! OH! The wonders!

North Carolina, come out this Friday to see all your favorite musicians attempt athletic prowess! And when you laugh, just remember. It's for a good freakin cause. Freakers are sponsoring the HoopScotch Charity Game!
In other Hopscotch news: Freakers will be sold at Shopscotch!! And at a very special tent, we will be giving away Freakers for the first 30 in the door!
NORTH CAROLINA IS THE FREAKIEST! (Insert some comment about shirtless helicopters. Right?!)

Dearest of dear Kickstarter backers:
The first official post-Kickstarter grilled cheese Freaker party will be held THIS SATURDAY (hot mess!) in a conjunction function with our beloved playmates at Farm JammaLamma!
If you don't know what Farm JammaLamma is all about (it's not the hokeypokey) then we are honored and delighted to present you with this treat! A 4 day festival, unlimited mind-blowing bands, and camping! In their own words: "The main stage, our barn built in 1885, is set in a natural tree-lined ampitheater with acres and acres of excellent viewing and listening. Our farm has 95 acres of primitive/rustic camping. There are no predetermined spots, grab a piece of land and treat it like it was your own. "
Would getting tickets to the 4 dayt extravaganza light up your life like a great ball of fire (OOH!)??? They are $25 in advance, $35 at the door and you can find them here:
