The first time I think I heard about Josh Freese was when I heard the first ‘A Perfect Circle’ recording. I loved his playing on that record. Everything else I’ve heard from his has been on that level or even better.

I know he’s been around for a long time, but better late than never to the Freese Fan Club. Bands and artists he’s worked with:

• The Vandals (1989-present)
• Devo (1996-present)
• Guns N’ Roses (1997-2000)
• A Perfect Circle (2000-2006)
• Kelly Clarkson (2003-2004)
• Avril Lavigne (2004-present)
• Sting (2005)
• Nine Inch Nails (2005-2008)
• Lostprophets (2006)
• Black Light Burns (2007)

Recently, I’ve heard him playing with the Foo Fighters at the Taylor Hawkins tribute concert. WOW is he good!
