简介

“Shake The Cage” marks the debut solo release of the Pittsburgh based guitarist, singer, and songwriter. With unprecedented attention to detail, the project is truly a solo effort. All of the writing and producing was done by Nelson as well all of the musical & vocal performances, with the exception of drums performed by the legendary Thomas Lang. The album is a collection of eleven hook driven rock songs displaying Nelson’s impressive four octave vocal range and notoriously ferocious guitar playing. Intertwining elements of punk, pop, and blues, Nelson has the uncanny ability to weave memorable melodies alongside intelligent lyrics to create a body of work that appeals to the masses. “I let my instincts guide me, and this album is the result of living in the moment." Nelson came to international attention in 2009 when he collaborated with virtuoso guitarist Paul Gilbert (of Racer X and Mr. Big) to co-headline the album “United States”. Together they wrote, performed, and produced the recording that was released in 2010 on Mascot Records. A successful tour of Japan spawned a cluster of four live bootlegs released shortly thereafter. After the success of “United States,” Freddie began fielding interest as a solo artist. In 2015, he started writing and recording songs for “Shake The Cage.” During this time, he was again approached by Paul Gilbert to help arrange and write songs for Gilbert’s latest solo release, “I Can Destroy,” produced by Kevin Shirley. During the course of the recording sessions in Los Angeles, Nelson met world renowned drummer Thomas Lang who, after hearing Nelson’s solo material, volunteered his skills as a drummer for the project. The album was mixed by Rob Hill of X Music Studios in Los Angeles, CA and was mastered by Maz Murad at Metropolis in London, England. “On first listen of Nelson’s rock solid vocals, I could hear where listeners may be reminded of Freddie Mercury or even Butch Walker. I know, a tall comparison. But I can say without any hesitation and hearing it for myself, Freddie Nelson is the real deal. A singer, performer, and writer with a unique sound whose amazing talents are truly all his own. ” – The Atomic Chaser
