High-energy, guitar driven rock weaving its way through soulful, heartfelt melodies. Bright. Fast. Fun. Loud. CITRA.

Fat Freddy's Drop’s pirate soul train, resolutely independent, worldwide.

Formed in 1999 in Wellington, New Zealand our sound draws inspiration from almost every part of the black music lexicon. Soul drenched vocals and jazz harmonies collide with tape delays and echo chambers, underpinned by a rhythm section as comfortable laying down a throbbing, techy soundscape as they are a swampy blues stomp.

"Don't bury your thoughts; put your vision to reality, yeah!"
-Bob Marley, "Wake Up & Live"

Denver guitarist and vocalist Dave Halchak decided to put together a group of musicians to celebrate the music of Bob Marley, and pay tribute to the songs by creating some exciting jams, and throwing one fine party. The result was a show in February of 2013 on Marley's Birthday. The chemistry of this newfound group in rehearsal plus the success of the show inspired this new concept for a tribute band: Wake Up & Live.

Wake Up & Live pushes the boundaries of your normal "tribute" band by taking the music of Bob Marley into uncharted improvisational moments. This and the stellar arrangements create a unique and powerful twist on the Marley catalog. After six years, the Denver based band has and continue to make their mark on the premier stages of Colorado and beyond and has continued the growth since then.

The band features Dave Halchak on guitar and lead vocals, Keith Hicks on lead guitar & vocals, LaSha & Jamie Jay on vocals, Andrew Martin on keyboards, Neil Ross on bass and J.R Ranck on drums. There are sometimes featured percussionists, horn players and additional sounds as well so be sure to check them out in your town soon!
