Charlie Francis - Producer, Mixer, Engineer, Musician

March and April have been very busy recording Hail! The Planes, Chloe Swaby, Draw Me Stories, Robyn Hitchcock, and The Almighty Man Band.

There has been remix fun with Among Brothers (on my ‘Cardiff remixed’ Soundcloud page: http://soundcloud.com/recordthis-1/sets/cardiff-remixed ) and Barefoot Dance Of The Sea, radio editing for Future Of The Left, and recording the wonderful Robin Williamson playing his Hardanger fiddle for Alasdair Roberts.

I got to flex my playing muscles on the Robyn Hitchcock session playing bass and organ, and also stood in for Christiaan Webb in pre-tour rehearsals with my Music Box buddies before Christiaan arrived for a short tour to promote the album we made last year ‘A Man Possessed’. I also got to play most of the instruments on the latest Chloe Swaby recording, ‘The Sky Will Lead Us There’ – all except the drums in fact.
