Duo Neil Frances Announce LA Show At Moroccan Lounge  Image

LA-based duo Neil Frances have announced a new headline date, playing Los Angeles' Moroccan Lounge on Saturday, September 22nd. Additionally, they will be supporting Poolside on a string of tour dates in August and September, making stops in Chicago, Vancouver, Brooklyn, and more. Recently the duo released their latest single "Ask Me Anything" HERE as part of their upcoming Took A While EP to be released August 17th.

The five song EP Took a While will showcase an ear-pleasing blend of styles with shades of contemporaries such as Tame Impala and Unknown Mortal Orchestra, with lyrics that probe just what it means to be a functioning human on Earth in 2018. "We're super excited to release our first EP and can't wait for our first headline show at The Moroccan Lounge in LA. Thanks for listening and supporting our music ;)"

Marc Gilfry and Jordan Feller met in 2012 under the guise of other endeavors, and reconnected four years later when Feller recruited Gilfry to sing on demos he had intended for use with female vocalists. But they much preferred the more lo-fi versions with Gilfry's guide vocals to the versions with different singers, quickly leading them to begin writing their own new material together.

They've quickly made a name for themselves by releasing these unique covers by Womack & Womack's "Teardrops", Stardust's "The Music Sounds Better With You" as well as original songs like "Dumb Love", "Coming Back Around" and creating an encouraging critical buzz by opening for bands like Unknown Mortal Orchestra and being supported by KCRW and Triple J radio alike.
