Band-Free Love

Free Love

Free Love was formed in 1st of December 2002, they are based in Ipoh; a small old town in Northwest of Malaysia. Members of Free Love also actively involved with their own project. The front man, Mohd Jayzuan is a singer / songwriter, Meor Shahrus Amir fronted legendary Ipoh based indie rock outfit called Muck, Mohd Nadzri is in charge with his power pop combo dubbed as The Hollows and Mohd Hazriq with Harmacy; another indie rock band from Ipoh. These lo-fi rockers are heavily influenced by indie rock music and they mixed it with a little bit of power pop.

In 2003, they recorded their first recording material called “Indie Rock Darling”. The song appeared in Kopi SeChewen Vol. 3 compilation released that same year and became a hit in the local independent circuit and in 2005, they recorded another song called “Hey Ho, I Love You!” for Radio Malaya Compilation.

Local fashion brand, Pop Malaya has taken an initiative to endorsed Free Love and funded the band to make a music video for “Indie Rock Darling”.. The video was directed by Blur (famous for Butterfingers’ video “Kembali”) and shoot by Woo Ming Jin a local film maker (Salon etc.). A local indie film maker by the name Razaisyam Rashid has directed a movie called “My Indie Rock Darling”, inspired by Free Love’s “Indie Rock Darling”.

After years without any new recording material, the band came out with their debut album “Feed Us with Yr Love” in November 2008. The album is released by Bodysurf Music, an indie label from Ipoh and Sizzleteen Records another indie label that is based in New York will release it for the United States market.
