NYC’S FREAKS BALL X TO TAKE PLACE 1/23 AT SULLIVAN HALL
 Anders Osborne |
Over the past 10 years, a music newsgroup of fans, taste makers and music lovers have gathered to celebrate the balance of a great party with great music. The decade anniversary of this event will be celebrated on Saturday, January 23 with Freaks Ball X at New York City’s Sullivan Hall.
Freaks Ball X will feature New Orleans’ Anders Osborne (two sets) and Jersey’s The Black Hollies. In-demand NYC axe-man Scott Metzger has been added to open up the night with a guitar-fueled groove set. This will be Scott’s eighth Freaks Ball performance in a row.
Tickets are $27 in advance, $30 day of show, and are available here.
Hosted by the New York-centric Yahoo-group the NYC-Freaks, the annual event has helped popularize bands such as Robert Randolph & the Family Band, Benevento/Russo Duo and the Led Zeppelin covering super-group Bustle In Your Hedgerow.
Past Freaks Ball performers have also included Apollo Sunshine, Ollabelle, Mocean Worker, DJ Logic, Chris Harford & the Band of Changes featuring Dean Ween, American Babies, Skerik and Mike Dillon.
