Freebass were an English rock supergroup consisting of, originally, three bassists - Andy Rourke (formerly of The Smiths), Peter Hook (formerly of Joy Division & New Order) and Gary "Mani" Mounfield (of The Stone Roses and Primal Scream) - and singer Gary Briggs (formerly of Haven).[2][3] Rourke subsequently left the line-up.[4]
The band's sound has been described as "a heady mix of modern rock, dub, and Northern soul".[1]
