Living in Cincinnati exposed Freekbass to genres of music he may have missed otherwise. While most kids were listening to Nirvana and Green Day, he connected with the bottom-heavy sounds coming out of the boom boxes like Zapp and Midnight Star. While working in a music shop to pay off his first electric bass he had in lay-away, he began to study the classics of Larry Graham, Sly Stone, Stevie Wonder, Parliament and Bootsy. By high school he transferred to Cincinnati's School for the Creative and Performing Arts (SCPA), where he studied bass and dove right into the local music scene.

The Freekbass lineup, in addition to Freekbass on bass and lead vocal, includes guitarist/vocalist - TSly, drummer/vocals - Chip Wilson, and DJ/Turntablist- Tobotius, who when not on tour with Freekbass, is the DJ for supergroup Science Faxtion with Bootsy Collins, Buckethead, and Brain from Primus. In the summer of 2008 Freekbass was a part of "A Tribute To The Godfather Of Soul Tour" which included and featured the original JB's, Bootsy and Catfish Collins, Chuck D From Public Enemy, guitarist Buckethead, and hip-hop legend Afrika Bambaataa.
