We had a great gig in Hamilton as part of the Rocktober concert playing along such talented bands as the Ellerly Daines Trio, fantastic. You see a short clip of the song that gave our band its name: Freefall to Freedom. (expired link)
Every song has a story to tell, so this one was written after our house was destroyed by an earthquake and we decided cut all strings and move out of the earthquake zones. Leaving friends behind was not easy, so the song is about a mix of sadness, uncertainty and excitement that comes with a move and starting something new. On the road up north. Here the lyrics:
Freefall to Freedom
Hanging in a safety net strings are holding and connect
To people, places, work and play, predictable - `til yesterday
Shattered earth, shattered life, snapping strings leaves fear to strive
The city’s gone, the rubbles to stay, uncertainty - since yesterday
Uncertainty - since yesterday
Freefall, freefall, freefall to freedom
Cutting loose a few more strings, taking memories, selling things
Leaving the place you know behind, relationships are redefined
Feeling stripped right to the bone, vulnerable and alone
Relying now on what’s inside, awakening senses to survive
Awakening senses to survive
Sad to leave, keen to move, feeling light, right in the groove
White canvas waiting to be filled; new strings are going to be built
Looking far, looking up, sipping from a coffee cup
Freefall from old to new, heading past Putaruru
Heading past Putaruru

Hi,
Free Fall Rock had a great show. It's been the first time with Tana Tapri on the lead vocals and people loved her. We had a fantastic audience who went along with our different styles of original rock music.
Here the link to the video of our song Kind Words.

We have our debut show in our new line up on 23 July in Hamilton, New Zealand. Those who can make it will hear experienced rockers performing original songs. This is also the first time of collaborating with established vocalist Tana Tapri who is lending her strong raspy voice to complement what Free Fall Rock is standing for: raw emotions, energy and a fun night out. Tell everyone, FREE event.

Free Fall Rock is going great with our 2 new members Tana and Rod. We are busy practicing new songs and a cold shed (we have winter in New Zealand) cannot hold us back. Tana brings her raspy rock voice and award winning Tapri songs and we are getting right into it adding 2 more songs every week. You can check out some of them here on NumberOneMusic, just search Tana Tapri.
We are really exited with this new line up and it seems N1M listeners love both, the old Free Fall songs and Tapri songs. For weeks the 6 songs we have together on N1M are taking out the first 6 places in the New Zealand rock charts!
As a band we are getting tight and the songs are going to be slick performances. We can't wait to take them to the first show in this new line up. Hopefully we can share soon some photos or video footage, as I know most of you are not in New Zealand to make it to a show.
Until then, take care

I did it. I had to throw out a song to make space for our new release Mad Man. This means good bye for Aotearoa. For all those of you who liked it, you can still find it on our facebook page: (expired link).
On FB you can currently download Mad Man by subscribing to our mailing list under the Band Profile tab. Check it out and tell us what you think.
A few exciting changes are waiting for Free Fall Rock and this means new sangs as well. Thanks again for all your support and feel free to share our music with everyone.
Take care, Free Fall Rock

I can't upload more than 3 songs on this site without paying for a subscription which I may do at some stage. For now you can download Mad Man by subscribing to our mailing list under the Band Profile tab in facebook. Happy to send you an MP3 if you give us your email.
Thanks for all your support and nice comments.

We are absolute stoked to have found so many supporters in the short time since we are releasing our songs. Our latest release Doctor made it to number 1 in the New Zealand charts in its first week and stayed there since. Last time I looked it was on rank 46 in the global rock charts. Thank you for your encouraging comments and yes, the more songs will be coming, we are just getting into the swing of it. Our next song is called Mad Man and can be expected in about 2 weeks. The song is about power hungry and manipulative people who are misusing their power for their own benefit instead of the greater good. We don't need them in this world!
But now the main thing: IT IS TIME TO GIVE YOU SOMETHING for your support. Just tell us which of our 3 songs you would like as MP3 by emailing to freefallrocknz@(expired link) and we will send it to you - for free.
Take care and keep rocking!

Really appreciate any comments you have on the song or lyrics.
Doctor is about the death of my external hard drive with 10 years worth of family photos on it. Don't worry it had a semi happy ending with the help of the DOCTOR.
Lyrics:
10 years of memories stored away
This monster sucked them in and locked them down
Memories I believed to be safe
Just to find that saving does not mean that they are safe
Call me a doctor, call me a doctor
I’ve got no access to my memory
