Freedia

This year’s lineup features notable acts like Stephen Marley, Big Freedia, Shemekia Copeland and PJ Morton.

On June 17, 2014, Freedia's major-label debut album, "Just Be Free," dropped; it featured "Explode" and its "wiggle" reference.

The “TiK ToK” singer will hit Mission Ballroom on May 11, a bottle of Jack Daniels not included, but spirited tourmate Big Freedia is more than enough.

We sat down with Freedia and discussed gun violence, why this film is important and some advice for families who are also affected by gun violence.

A siren loudly blared as the intro to Beyonce’s “Formation” played and Freedia stood center stage, controlling the room with the progression of each verse.

Big Freedia posted around 2 a.m.

Big Freedia’s in here!

Freedia’s time supporting LCD Soundsystem proved markedly different from her experience opening for another indie darling, the Postal Service, in 2013.
