With their origins in Sweden, and now based in London, Francobollo’s new EP, Wonderful is a statement of intent. Today they’re sharing their new single, and the EP’s title track, ‘Wonderful’.
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. Currently producing their debut album, the record itself was a test as to how to capture the band’s onstage spirit – which they’re now quite renowned for. This resulted in an unorthodox approach to recording the majority of the album – in front of an audience, with an aim to inject the Francobollo personality into the recordings.
The band have had encouraging support from the likes of DIY Magazine, CLASH Magazine, London In Stereo, Ja Ja Ja Music and more online, as well as receiving strong airplay from Radio X, Amazing Radio.
