TIGER BOMB is an all female garage-pop outfit from Portland, Maine, fronted by two girl-group legends together for the first time!

Lynda Mandolyn of San Francisco's Fabulous Disaster and Chris Horne of The Brood, have combined forces in a new rock & pop sound explosion, backed by the dynamic duo of Amanda Ayotte on bass & Jessica Smith on drums.

The band creates a feline-frenzy that fuses catchy original garage-pop songs with tight harmonies, ferocious guitars, and a high-energy attitude.

'Tiger Bomb combines raw, visceral power with hooks you can hang on to and, most importantly, real songs, songs that stick in your head.' Jeff Tamarkin, (Editor, BestClassicBands.com)

FREELOADER is the current rock band of songwriter and guitarist Nat Freedberg (Upper Crust, Titanics, Flies), featuring lead guitarist Charles Hansen (Handymen, Gymnasium, the Unclean), drummer Jim Janota (also of Upper Crust, the Bags, Handymen, Unclean), and John Sheeran (Township, Andy California) on bass—all brilliant players who will be familiar to anyone who has followed Boston rock for a bit.

Stylistically, the band is vaguely reminiscent of a broad spectrum of late-'60s early '70s hard-rock outfits, spiked with a touch of two-guitar psychedelia and, at times, a slight but noticeable country twang—all filtered through Freedberg's often-ironic lyrical sensibility and flavored with the usual brain-bending guitar hookery.

Freeloader has two records out on Boston's Rum Bar label: 2019's The Path of Least Resistance, and 2021's Freeloader II.
