TIM FREEDMAN-piano,lead vocals,timfoolerer...

"The first two acts of the Tim Freedman life story are unexceptional to the point of cliché. Middle class, private schoolboy leaves stultifying suburbia for hipster inner-city locale and plunges headfirst into the bohemian lifestyle. Aforementioned boy drinks lots of wine, takes lots of drugs, chases lots of women and puts childhood music lessons to good use playing in a variety of ephemeral, bizarrely named bands. Unlike most however, Freedman did not give up the dream his twenties to settle down to a conventional, nine to five existence basking in happy memories of a misspent youth. Dropping out of his law degree in final year to concentrate full time on music, Freedman pursued his goal with single-minded determination through disappointing sales, small crowds and personal tragedy until the main chance finally came his way. When No Aphrodisiac went ballistic in 1997 it was if (at least for those not part of the Sando scene) Freedman had come out of nowhere. However like most 'overnight successes' Freedman had a decade long dues-paying apprenticeship behind him including stints in the Hummingbirds and the Sunnyboys, not to mention Itchy Feet - 1988 second prize winners of Greg Evans Star Search..."
