Details:
Song-writer,singer, and guitarist, Neville Francis, was
born in St Thomas, Jamaica; And grew up in Snow Hill,
Portland, until age fourteen when he relocated with his family to Jones Town. In Jones Town, Francis was exposed
to the musically nurturing and artistically vibrant
environment that is Kingston 12, and quickly began
learning to play the guitar and to sing back-up vocals.
It was probably these early experiences which led to a
short stint as a back-up singer with icon, Monty Morris. His initial studio recordings took place at the
legendary Studio One recording studio singing back-up
for Belltones leadsinger, Trevor Shields. In the early
70’s the artist emigrated to Toronto, Canada, and
eventually met musical stalwart, Jo Jo Bennet, who
became teacher and mentor to the budding guitarist and
back-up vocalist. It was at Bennett’s, Sattalite music
school, that teacher convinced pupil to start singing lead-vocals. When Jo Jo Bennet subsequently decided to
form a professional band-The Sattalites- he invited
Francis to become a member. Francis established himself
as a writer,co-lead singer, and back-up vocalist on
several of the band’s recordings. In 1993 Francis
re-located to Buffalo, New York, and soon co-founded the
band, Strictly Riddim which quickly became one of the
areas most proficient reggae bands. His solo cd was
released in 2003 and he continues to live in the Buffalo area fronting his new band, The Riddim Posse. The beat
goes on!
