Schlitz

"Schlitz" is a standalone single by American rock band The Free Rock Trio. The song was released to Bandcamp, YouTube, and Instagram TV on May 25, 2020, before being released to all streaming outlets on June 1, 2020.

Due to the social distancing guidelines brought on by the COVID-19 crisis, the track was recorded in 3 different parts of Massachusetts- guitarist and vocalist Jacob Keplinger recorded his parts in his hometown of Cheshire, drummer Justin Siegel recorded in Winchester, and bassist James Siegel recorded in Boston. The band originally planned to record their subsequent album Gone Wild in this fully remote recording method, but case numbers in Massachusetts were at a record low during the summer of 2020, and it allowed the band to record in-person. However, the trio's fourth LP New Threads is Dead would be recorded this way in 2021.
