Francesqa waste no time in making their mark with this EP – from the outset it’s dripping in hooks and melodies to make even the most miserable of us nod an appreciative head. With
Peter Miles (
The King Blues,
Canterbury,
Futures) at the helm, the likes of ‘Ghosts’ and ‘Years’ are charmingly produced, neither too syrupy or lacking in punch.
Ashley Wilkie’s vocals are hypnotic, while as a whole
Francesqa are a thoroughly cohesive and clearly passionate unit and one that look set to garner a fair amount of deserved attention in the coming months.
