Francke, Stewart
Love Implied
Love Implied is the follow up to 2011s comeback cd, Heartless World, a record that won Francke new fans worldwide via his scorching duet with Bruce Springsteen, Summer Soldier. In addition to the duet with Springsteen, Francke and his band carry the momentum of having performed with Bob Seger, Warren Zevon, Chicago, Steve Earle and Stevie Winwood. "Love Implied started out as a very simple, acoustic music," Francke says, "played by real people, with real emotional input. But then it was layered into this lush Wall of Sound with acoustic guitars, a lot of slide playing, and vocal harmonies. I love the sound of this record. Im trying to cover a lot of ground when it comes to love implied or otherwise on this record. I just hope my fans love the varied styles and stories, as usual."
