After two critically acclaimed records, Luis Francesco Arena comes back to us with a third album.
This time, Luis’ has enriched his musical world with drums, piano and various experimentations such as sampling and human beat box, which all add to the songwriter’s vocabulary while extending his musical terrain (Red Handed). When listening to his melodies, one thinks of Nick Drake, Ken Stringellow and even the Beatles (Black Lemonade).
His lyrics are subtle and poetical, leading to a rich universe, peopled by strange animals, childhood memories and the ups and downs of Luis’ world.
On stage, Luis Francesco Arena mesmerizes with his amazing vocals and guitar skills, both perfectly matched by the violin and cello. After numerous tours and many fruitful encounters, Luis Francesco Arena was noticed by John Congleton (Paperchase…) who decided to produce his album.
It was finally recorded at the Electrical Studio in Chicago by Steve Albini in February 2009.
