FRANCOLIN
Francolin blend Motown pop and calypso with an ease and energy that
awakens any sleepy crowd into dancing. The words of Swedish-born singer/songwriter
Staffan Guinane are mad, happy sad and strum strings of hearts young
and old. Addictive guitar hooks, big beautiful trumpet lines, drum
rolls and occasional yelling - it's just music for everyone together,
having a ball in summertime! In the past year Francolin have brought
a growing and enthusiastic audience to bars, bars and bars, a sold
out launch and festivals on Melbourne's streets and in the Victorian
countryside. Francolin's inaugural studio release was produced at
the ear of Nick Huggins (Two Bright Lakes - Oscar Martin / Kid Sam/
Whitley) and will be released with a memorable launch party.
YEO
Joined by the ultra-talented Yeo, fresh from his Australian tour and
release of his third album. Much too young for a midlife crisis, Yeo
has seamlessly moved from funk to folk in the last year without forming
a single cross genre (i.e fonk/fulk) an achievement were
all very grateful for. Hailing from Brisbane, Yeos metaphorically
explosive set is as fun as a firecracker. Your mother will love him
and your father will give you a knowing glance for it will be clear
when you see him, that he is the one. Yeo will be joining
Francolin to kick hearts and take names.
