Neal Francis

Liberated from a self-destructive past and born anew in sobriety, Francis has captured an inspired collection of songs steeped in New Orleans rhythms and early 70s #rocknroll. His music evokes a bygone era of R&B’s heyday while simultaneously forging a new path on the musical landscape. We chat about his past with addiction, his sobriety and how it related to his music. The journey from a hospital bed to launching his solo career was neither predictable nor straightforward. There were musical fits and starts, relapses, and broken relationships. Yet the overwhelming passion driving Francis in this second act has been an abundance of creative energy. We also talk about growing up, various day jobs, working with soul musicians on the road, and his past bands that led up to his album 'Changes' and his new record due out soon.
