As part of our ongoing ‘In Session for GRTR!’ series, Chicago-based singer songwriter Tom Fuller has crafted an exclusive set, drawing upon previous albums and the current release ‘Freedom’.

Tom has worked with hit producer Rick Chudacoff, who over the years has helped create the Tom Fuller Band’s unique sound. Fuller released his debut album ‘Chasing An Illusion’ in 2005, and followed-up with 2008′s ‘Abstract Man’ and 2011′s ‘Ask’, of which the latter Tom recorded with two of Paul McCartney’s bandmates, Abe Laboriel, Jr. and Brian Ray.

‘Freedom’ is the new album from the Tom Fuller Band. Recorded in Nashville, Tennessee, and Chicago, Illinois, before being mixed at the historic FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, and mastered at London’s legendary Abbey Road Studios, ‘Freedom’ features eleven songs about a life lived, built on a foundation of hard-earned wisdom, heartbreak, addiction, love, loss and hope.
