Info for Early Retirement
Jack ist eine alte Seele in einer neuen Welt. Sein neues Album "Early Retirement" navigiert durch die moderne Gesellschaft und gefallene Träume. Trotz des Kampfes geht es auf diesem Album um innere Stärke und Widerstandsfähigkeit. Produziert von Archie Sylvester (Ferris & Sylvester), verwischt das Album nahtlos die Grenzen zwischen Folk, Soul, Rock und Country.
Fans von Flyte, Nathaniel Rateliff und Courtney Marie Andrews werden sich in ihn verlieben.
"Eine Mischung aus rohem Soul, ehrlichem Country-Herz und unbestreitbarer britischer Entschlossenheit" (Holler Country)
"Dieses ganze Album sollte zu einem Gebiet von außergewöhnlicher natürlicher Schönheit erklärt werden" (Louder Than War)

Jack Francis
Singer/Songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Jack Francis’ musical journey started as a teenager. After more than 10 years of honing his craft performing in pubs, clubs and venues around the UK. A stint writing Pop songs for a publishing house followed. This became the catalyst for Francis to focus his attention on recording and releasing his own music the way he wanted it to be heard. During a break between the lockdowns of 2020, his self-titled debut album started production with the help of old friends Ferris & Sylvester at their home studio in Wiltshire. Upon its release, the songs from his debut were championed by the likes of Janice Long, Tom Robinson, Ricky Ross and Iain Anderson all across the BBC. A string of festival appearances in the UK & Europe followed in the summer of 2022, before starting work on his second album in September of the same year. Francis’ second record, entitled ‘Early Retirement’ is due for release in the Spring of 2024. A personal collection of songs demonstrating a more diverse sonic palette, as well as his acerbic wit, ‘Early Retirement’ compounds Jacks experiences navigating modern society and fallen dreams.
“Hauntingly wonderful acoustic tunes tinged in old school Americana.” - Southampton Music Magazine
