about

After a chance encounter with band front-man "KEITH GOODWIN" from the Philadelphian band, the GOOD OLD WAR, it was during April 2016 in the foyer of the O2 Bristol a conversation sparked Francis to release the workings of an intended EP as a Demo.

A light-bulb moment quickly transgressed into Francis releasing a 4 track demo titled "Demo for Keith" in response to the conversation he had whilst attending a gig for the headliner Brian Fallon, who was on his UK tour.

Songs on the album were a labour of love - Francis had been working with Scott Fitzgerald* on the release since April 2013. They had planned to release an EP early 2014. Forward on three years and in the midst of the flow of conversation, the night on the 10th April 2016, a decision was made in Francis’ mind, to present his “work-in-progress” (warts and all) to Keith, in honour of their conversation and random exchange.

During the conversation Francis asked Keith;

"If you hadn’t made it [as an artist] at what age would you have given up hope and resided yourself to a 'day job'"

The memory of Keith's reply is muddled by adrenalin and whiskey but has led to this release, in the honest hope that Francis obtains a Song-writing, or Recording Development deal.

Francis is now using the demo to promote himself, foremost as a songwriter and composer and secondly as a Singer/Songwriter, in one last ditch effort to break the industry.

If you’re listening Keith, you have first dibs, but be quick as this man’s fired up and ready...
