Three bassists, Peter Hook (Joy Division / New Order), Andy Rourke (The Smiths) & Mani Mounfield (The Stone Roses) unite the seminal Manchester bands of the last 30 years. Freebass meld and re-interpret their individual styles into an inventive cocktail of Northern Soul, Dub, Krautrock & Alternative Rock, mixing melodic songs with anthemic darker edged tunes.

It's A Beautiful Life respects the past without moving backward, adapting decades of experience into an innovative album. The U.S. release features a bonus disc with remixes from influential producers Arthur Baker and Fritz von Runte plus instrumentals of the band's Two Worlds Collide EP.
