Robert Francis - Indian Summer (November 3, 2017)

Matt Who · Oct 18, 2017

Follow-up to last year's short but sweet Fire Engine Red. I feel like I used to see threads about him on AP.net but I'm not sure if I've seen much of any discussion of him on Chorus. RIYL alt-country, Americana, top-notch songwriting...

Robert Francis is a multi-instrumentalist, Americana singer-songwriter from Los Angeles, California. As the youngest member of a music-filled household, Robert benefited from a diverse musical climate thanks to his late pianist/producer father, his songwriting sister Juliette Commagere, and his Mexican mother, who sang native ranchera songs around the house. This musical upbringing eventually led to Francis’s 2007 debut, the musically diverse One by One, at the young age of 19. Five more studio albums have followed.

Robert’s 7th studio album and his newest effort, Indian Summer, will be released November 3rd on Aeronaut Records. Recorded over ten days in the Silver Lake neighborhood of Los Angeles, Francis plays every single instrument on the album. The songs touch on everything from complex relationships between blue-collar residents and refugees in Hamtramck, Michigan, the first majority-Muslim city in the United States, to a Native American couple’s ill-fated journey off a reservation in northeast California. As a lyricist Francis does not hold back, and the result is an album that is contemplative and immediate, a no-frills forty-seven minute examination of what it is to be alive in 2017.
