It took roughly seven years, the loose formation of an instrumental rock band, a debut EP, additions and subtractions, a roller rink and a near death experience to arrive at Francisco The Man.
However it was definitely worth the wait, over from the U.S for The Great Escape and fitting in some key U.K dates whilst gracing our shores.
"What is really exciting here is to see a band exhibit such synergy. This is not a forced pastiche on a tired old rock formula. This is a band presenting the best possible version of themselves and their songs to an unsuspecting public (or at least, an unsuspecting writer). Perhaps it’s the long life of the band prior to the release of this album and the opportunity this gives to hone their craft. Perhaps it’s to their benefit that this is on a label like Fat Possum, rather than on a major, rushing to find the next big thing, foregoing the possibility of artistic development. Perhaps, though, it’s just because Francisco the Man are a good band, a creative, solid band. Not a great band, not yet anyway, but a band with the potential, the achingly exciting possibility, to be a great band."
BAD DREEMS:
Hailing from Adelaide they state "There's no time to wallow in the mire". If you do you're just gonna get sucked away. Sucked up north through the city's decaying fringe, past the closed Mitsubishi plant, past Snowtown, past Port Augusta and into the dry red nothingness. Bad//Dreems know this. That's why they got together the summer before last, sweating out their hangovers in a warehouse next to the West End Brewery.
