Search - Jane Francis :: Skeletons For Tea

Transporting you to lush, analog heaven, Jane Francis presents her debut solo CD, ?Skeletons For Tea?. The ten song collection weaves together Francis?s country spirit with southern pop, recalling influences such as Lucinda Williams, Joni Mitchell and Cat Power. Francis?s sharp lyrical approach is in full-form, brought to the forefront by stripped-down yet dead-on instrumentation (courtesy of Francis?s husband and musical partner Jay Manley [guitar and bass, organ, percussion and backing vocals], along with friends Jil Christensen on accordion and Mark Wells on backing vocals). The result is a assortment of tunes that range from upbeat and carefree (?Order To The Universe,? ?Dream Of Love?) to subtle and introspective (?Bluebird,? ?Skeletons For Tea?).
