What a beautiful way to start the week. Usually, bands will release a free download of their song or EP but to offer a physical copy of their record for free is a rarity. The LA-based psychedelic/folk rock trio Francisco The Man is giving away their 12″ EP With Friends Like You for free, and all you have to do is pay $3 for shipping. Also, with the vinyl, you will receive an immediate download of the EP as it says on the group’s bandcamp. Only 500 copies of the record were made and that means you will have major regrets if you miss out on this opportunity.
Everyday Noise reviewed the song “Do You Remember?” off the EP, stating “At a surprisingly breezy six-and-a-half minutes, Cantino guides a rousing ‘seize the day’ anthem that’s just a tad wistful, asking ‘Do you remember when you were young, the way you used to think?’ Think of it as Francisco the Man’s ‘Summer of ’69’ – but with rich, distinctive guitar flavor driving an extended instrumental sequence, and no references to your mama’s porch.”
And if that review didn’t do it for ya, then watch the guys perform the song below. AND see the band live performing at LaBrie’s in Glendale this Tuesday night with George Glass.
