Francobollo: Momentum

Distorted, childlike, energetic, excitable, mischievous; quite simply Francobollo is everything you ever wanted for Christmas, but were too afraid to ask. The members, who met at school in Lund, Sweden, cut their teeth in North London warehouse parties, the band are equally at home in intimate holes as they are on big festival stages; always oozing with joy; winning over audiences with ease.

Mercury Prize and Brit Award winning producer Charlie Andrew took great interest in the band after seeing them play live, making them the first signing to his newly established label Square Leg Records.

‘Long Live Life’ – Francobollo’s much anticipated debut album, to be released on Friday 14th July, was a test as to how to capture the band’s onstage spirit – which they’re now widely renowned for. This resulted in an unorthodox approach to recording the majority of the album – in front of a live audience, with an aim to inject the Francobollo personality into the recordings, which they’ve 100% achieved.

Having already seen really encouraging support from the likes of NME, DIY Magazine, CLASH Magazine, NOTION, London In Stereo, The Line Of Best Fit, Dork, Gold Flake Paint, Ja Ja Ja and more online, as well as receiving strong airplay from Radio 1, 6 Music, Radio X, Beats 1 and more – the band are undoubtedly set to make a real impact over the next 12 months, and beyond.
