Real Estate bassist Alex Bleeker has confirmed an East Coast tour with his Crazy Horse/jam-inspired Freaks project. Alex Bleeker & the Freaks will kick off their tour at Brooklyn, NY’s Monster Island on August 8 and bring things to a close on August 20 at North Hampton, NH’s Runnymede Farm. Brooklyn’s Flower Orgy will join the group on the road.
Though the Freaks’ rotating lineup has included different members of Real Estate in the past, this incarnation of the band will feature Bleeker on guitar, Real Estate drummer Jackson Pollis on bass, Axolotl’s Karl Bauer on drums and lead guitarist Alex Steinberg. Bleeker is also working on a new Freaks studio album
