The five-piece, Philly-based pop-rock sensation known as Free Energy hit the scene in 2009 with their self-titled EP. This year, they're giving us their first full-length album, Stuck on Nothing, produced by LCD Soundsystem mastermind, James Murphy. Free Energy consists of Scott Wells, Paul Sprangers, Evan Wells, Geoff Bucknam, and Nick Shuminsky.

What set the mood for us in listening to this record was that, with the press package for the album, they included a cassette tape! The feel of the entire record fits right in with the nostalgia surrounding the cassette. It has a very classic, late 70's/early 80's pop sound. It's very sunny and happy; perfectly suiting the transition into this nice weather!

This is the third track on the album, "Bang Pop." It's a tune you can throw the top down on the car (or just roll down all the windows) and hit the highway without any particular destination!



Stuck on Nothing drops May 4th.

See Free Energy LIVE at the Beauty Bar on April 23rd! Who knows, perhaps there may be a run-in with the Casserole as well? ;)
