Neal Francis – Return To Zero (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Neal Francis came up through the Chicago music scene carrying the spirit of New Orleans funk and soul in his piano work, a lineage that traces back through Professor Longhair and Allen Toussaint. His first two records built a devoted following among fans who still believe in the transformative power of live, analog performance. Return To Zero finds him pushing that foundation into bolder, heavier territory.
NEAL FRANCIS / RETURN TO ZERO Acclaimed singer-songwriter-pianist Neal Francis is ringing in the new year with his eagerly anticipated third studio album, Return To Zero. Francis' first full-length studio effort in more than three years and most extravagantly realized work so far, Return To Zero sees the Chicago-based singer-songwriter-pianist creating a beautifully strange entangling of timeless rock 'n' roll and '70s-era dance music. Merging supremely heavy guitar riffs with lush and pulsating grooves, Francis constructed the album sans digital programming in keeping with his long-standing devotion to all things analog. The album is heralded by today's premiere of the gorgeously sprawling power pop anthem, "What's Left Of Me," available everywhere now. A piercingly candid reflection on life on the road co-written with chart-topping Nashville-based songwriter Chris Gelbuda (Sabrina Carpenter, Meghan Trainor, Zac Brown Band). ATO RECORDS
