Francis Dale <\/strong>is one of those artist. One that\u00a0will breakthrough in the neatest way, fast. Francis Dale would not have popped on our radars and turned our dashboard in a frenzy if it wasn\u2019t for Hillydilly<\/a> discovering this great new talent, so thanks you Chad ! The portuguese sounds like a true, generously kind, force of nature you really can\u2019t ignore. The kind that creeps its way and grows on your credibility meter by the second.<\/p>\n

His alternative soul built on minimalistic beats and over delayed layers of guitars speaks about time, beings and relationships.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The soulful, electronica artist, with 2 four-track EP\u2019s and a\u00a0uber\u00a0decent cover of \u201cNo Diggity\u201d to his name will charm your senses as soon as you play one of his songs. We would recommend you start with the track \u2018Eleanor\u2019 from his latest 2nd EP titled \u2018\u25a1\u2019 . and move on to \u2018In The Elegy\u2019 if you don\u2019t know where to start. Francis Dale<\/strong>\u00a0hails from Lisbon down southern Portugal and has been around for a substantial amount of time before we came across his material. Francis Dale<\/strong> is a writer, sings in english, and produces\u2026 He can be a part-time idealist\u2026 Which of course, transpires in the output. Just like SILVA in fact. He produces some similar tunes. But with his own twist.<\/p>\n

We cannot stress enough how good his music is. The guy has already run a few live errands on the local scene, and his big break should happen anytime this year. With two EPs like he has dropped, there\u2019s no doubt Dale<\/strong> will make a spot for himself\u00a0amongst artists like SOHN<\/a>, Silva<\/a>, James Blake<\/a> and the likes\u2026 Listen instead :<\/p>\n
