Green Day endorse Freefaller cover!
Freefaller were in awe when they recently received an email from a Green Day representative at Reprise Records stating that the rock gods had heard the cover of their 90’s classic “Basket Case” and thought it was “Pretty Cool”.
Ollie said- “When Freefaller covering Basket Case was first talked about, our publishing company (Zomba) contacted Green Day’s people to get clearance. Green Day said it was cool as long as we kept the song in it’s original form” Rich- “It was amazing getting the stamp of approval from the guys who wrote the song all those years ago” Gary- “Is there no end to Green Day’s rock god-ness!” Dean- “Happy days”.
On the 8th of October, Freefaller performed at a special charity event at the legendary British Telecom Tower in London to celebrate the 40th birthday of the 60’s iconic structure and to raise money for Children in Need. The event was jam packed with a whole host of stars and the Freefaller boys were only too pleased to be raising money for such a good cause. Dean said- “One of the best things about being in a band is being able to really help with charities so please go and donate anything you can!” http://www.bbc.co.uk/pudsey
