JW Francis Drops New Single ft Margaux
We’ll be able to get of 2023 with a fresh new album from JW Francis, and with this new hit single, I’m totally ready to drop a dollar or ten on the listen. Francis deep vocals have already appeared on various pages here, hitting with this sort of hip swagger. But, here, you get the maximized hook as his heavy drawl meets up with the contrast of Margaux; her performance is brief, though it drops in this insatiable playfulness to the track that ups the ante on the forthcoming LP. Dream House is scheduled for a January 23rd release, so try on some folky-rock that feels a little bouncy and fresh!
Margaux is a songwriter living in Brooklyn, but I hear a little bit of the softened vibes of maybe a Stella Donnelly in the way she’s crafted this track. Sure, there’s the intimacy of the strummed notes, but the song’s opening first few minutes have this playfulness that really makes po fans swoon, or at least this particular listener. But, what really drew me to the song was the shift midway through things; it takes on this ethereal dream quality that sort of takes the song into this floating meander that I didn’t see coming. It’s nice to be surprised by things. Expect a debut EP from the artists in November.
