The Act Francis Releases New Single, ''In From The Cradle/Day Long Moon,'' mixed by Dae Bennett, the son of legendary icon Tony Bennett.
New York, NY - The Act Francis fuses the perpetually evolving technology of computers with traditional song writing to create this catchy electronic track. Mixed by Dae Bennett, the son of legendary icon Tony Bennett, “In From the Cradle” will be released to over 2,400 digital retailers worldwide. The multi-talented TAF wrote, produced, performed, and recorded “In From the Cradle” during his travels throughout Europe. Romantic in nature, the song is most directly influenced by TAF’s time in Paris.
While The Act Francis is a composer first and foremost, he is an artist in several other forms as well. In addition to writing, producing, and performing his own music, TAF has also been featured as an actor in a few major film projects, namely “Find Me Guilty,” a film for which he was hand-picked by director Sidney Lumet to play in a scene opposite Vin Diesel.
The Act Francis also is an avid photographer, graphic designer, budding filmmaker and chef. He designed the packaging and artwork for the advance copy of “In From The Cradle,” and even filmed its video while taking off on a plane from JFK airport in New York. There are many more examples of his photographic and designing prowess as well as more of his music on his website https://www.tradebit.com and his Myspace page https://www.tradebit.com
Equally as interesting as his music is the curious, enigmatic nature of The Act Francis. When asked about his origins and where he was from, TAF responded: “I feel like I could be from any place on the planet; hot, cold, low, high, small town, large city.” Regardless of where he is from, it is where his music takes you emotionally that is truly remarkable. "…The Act Francis’ music is always a journey" states Steve Addabbo, famed producer of Suzzanne Vega.
Music has been an integral part of TAF’s life since an early age. He was raised in a home where Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Elvis records were frequently played. Being exposed to such icons would make anyone want to pick up music, and for TAF the guitar was his calling. He cites a solo by Eddie Van Halen called “Eruption” as his inspiration to learn the rock guitar, a craft he has mastered today. “I wasn’t a teddy bear kid; instead, I had a toy guitar I carried around everywhere.”
His parents taught him his first songs on the guitar, and soon after that, he began to discover his own creative nature. “Whenever I set out to learn a song by someone else I ended up writing my own so I started to concentrate on that creativity.”
Apart from his musical upbringing, The Act Francis draws major influence from his personal life as a world traveler. Never content in one spot for long, TAF has seen more places in the world than most people can dream of, giving him a very cultured and well-rounded mindset. "As an artist, one cannot boat to Moorea Island in Tahiti or climb to the top of extinct volcano Seongsan Ilchulbong at the extreme eastern tip of Jejudo, South Korea and not be inspired. The world breathes me magic." That magic is clearly on display in the music of The Act Francis, giving it an immediate advantage over that of other artists, as it draws inspiration from many cultures in all parts of the world.
The Act Francis not only writes, performs, produces, and records his own music, he also designs the very means by which it is delivered to the public. The Act Francis is a self-contained artist in the truest sense of the word.
Just as he refuses to limit himself to one art form, The Act Francis explores several different genres in his music. Look for his debut album out this summer, tastefully blending various flavors to create a truly ear altering listening experience.
