JW Francis w/ The After Hours @ Manny's FRIDAY OCT 10

Born in Oklahoma, raised in Paris, living in New York City, assistant to a Nobel Prize Winner, licensed New York City tour guide and Murder Mystery business owner, JW Francis is the newest signing to Sunday Best Recordings. His brand of lo-fi, utterly irresistible bedroom dream-pop takes its lead from the city JW lives in, with echoes of Jonathan Richman, The Velvet Underground and the lo-fi sound New York has been inspiring for decades.

Endearing and catchy, it’s a neat piece of 80s indebted guitar pop - CLASH MAGAZINE

drawing you in with jangly syncopated guitars, groovy basslines, and Francis’ low-key slacker vocals. - UNDER THE RADAR

a nostalgia-tinged hit, filled with jangly guitars and contagious melodies that are sure to brighten your end-of-summer blues. - WONDERLAND MAGAZINE

The album is rife with his upbeat, eccentric bedroom-pop sensibilities - SPIN MAGAZINE

tender, sweet and endearingly homespun - VICE I-D
