Free Nationals

Free Nationals are an American band widely recognized for their collaboration with Grammy-winning artist Anderson .Paak as his live backing band. Having risen to prominence with their smooth blend of soul, R&B, and funk, they are adept at creating music that resonates with a throwback feel while remaining firmly planted in contemporary sonic landscapes. The band's self-titled album "Free Nationals," released in 2019, boasts a collection of tracks featuring a diverse range of collaborators such as Daniel Caesar, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, and Syd, showcasing the band's versatility and ability to meld their sound with various musical influences.

With singles like "Beauty & Essex," "Time," and "Eternal Light," Free Nationals have carved out a distinctive identity separate from their work with Anderson .Paak. Their music stands out for its sophisticated arrangements, soulful grooves, and a palpable sense of warmth that has garnered them a dedicated following. The release of "Free Nationals (Instrumentals)" offered fans a deeper appreciation of their musical craftsmanship, highlighting their ability to create infectious rhythms and melodies that feel both fresh and timeless. Their collective vibe contributes to the resurgence of R&B-tinged funk, with a penchant for creating tracks that are as suitable for laid-back listening as they are for dance floors.
