Freeheat are a British indie rock band formed by Jim Reid and Ben Lurie of The Jesus and Mary Chain and Romi Mori and Nick Sanderson of The Gun Club.
After releasing an EP, Don't Worry Be Happy (later released with a bonus track as Retox), their debut album, Back on the Water was released, after several delays, on 13 June 2006, on Planting Seeds Records, a label mostly known for indie pop recordings.
Jim Reid has also continued recording and touring under his own name, both solo, and with his sister's act, Sister Vanilla.
The band's 2006 album, Back on the Water, received a rating score of six from PopMatters.[1]
