Fat Freddy's Drop is a 7 piece live Dub/Reggae band from Wellington, New Zealand. Founded in 2001, the current lineup consists of DJ Fitchie, Joe Dukie (Dallas Tamaira), Toby Laing, Ho Pepa, Fulla Flash, Scott Towers, Tehimana Kerr, and Iain Gordon. The name "Fat Freddy's Drop" is a reference to a piece of blotter art that was circulating in the NZ dance scene in the late 90's. The group's first major release was a live album, Live at the Matterhorn, a lengthy jam session recorded in a popular Wellington night club.
