Buzzing pop newcomers FRANCIS AND THE LIGHTS have recently become the center of a certain buzz, especially following the release of their song and video Friends which featured KANYE WEST and BON IVER‘s Justin Vernon. WEST himself declared the track to his favourite song of 2016 and now the project of Francis Farewell Starlite has finally released its debut album.
Farewell, Starlite! features ten songs, including the new Vernon-produced See Her Out (That’s Just Life) and My City’s Gone, a new collaboration with KANYE WEST. And for once we can agree with the rap superstar: The FRANCIS AND THE LIGHTS debut is a soulful and adventurous pop debut that actually shows how well crafted a contemporary mainstream album can be.
