About Freez-R-Burn
Freez-R-Burn has performed in the greater Akron area for more than thirty years, playing special events, fundraisers, private parties, bars, restaurants, coffee shops and homes. Porch Rokr is a frequent favorite. We have been fortunate to have shared stages with many local music icons.
Anchored by three Thomas brothers (Brian, Jim and Kevin), the lineup also includes original drummer Kevin Pahlau. Allan Michaelson and Ron Johnson fill out the current lineup. Allan and Ron have played in multiple other combos and styles locally. What basically evolved out of family jams in the early 1990s has sustained as a live Akron-centric performance group year after year.
Freez-R-Burn released original EPs in 2007 ("Porch Full of Pirates") and in 2011 ("Abandon Groove"). Among other accolades, they were named “Best of the City” in Akron Life Magazine in 2012.
