"Goodtimes Goodtimes is singer and songwriter, Franc Cinelli. Imagine a musical companion travelling with you across the unknown, through uncertain times, challenging encounters and further into the beautiful wilderness of eternity. A knowing voice with comforting songs of love and hope that fills the emptiest of souls with faith and promise".




Immersing himself in a melange of acoustic folk and gentle electric storytelling, Franc Cinelli is a rare musical maverick with a natural cinematic presence, iconic tendencies indeed. The buzz on the Internet surrounding this album release still remains gloriously hype free, there`s going to be a few major musical publications caught sleeping after Goodtimes Goodtimes self-titled album`s release date. I`m gonna stick my neck out, raise my head above the parapet and recommend the album as a cure for all iconoclastic social blackness and a bag full of factious mis-spent promises. Franc delivers his lyrical harmonies within regular Country/Folk boundaries, striking a fine balance between tentative Dylan-esque blues, upbeat Country and breezy southern Americana.

"I'm just the man who tells the stories at the fairground
A different potion for every passer by
I'll sell you dreams you never knew you wanted
Take your money and leave you stranded to the night"

The wide and untraditional production on this record produces a warm and deeply sensual sound, the guitar strings are vibrant and fortunately don`t suffer any volume twitches to compensate Franc Cenelli`s powerful vocal range. Contemporary Folk with alternating tempo and touching chord strikes give Goodtimes Goodtimes the ideal reason to tug vulnerable heart strings and instigate some appropriate foot tapping.

November 1st is the official release date for the album, The Pigalle Club, London will be hosting the launch show - Hear the fantastic debut in full, �5 tickets still available Here.
In the meantime we`ve got one copy of this fabulous release to send out to a reader. Simple task, just add yourself to the Goodtimes Goodtimes Facebook or Twitter page and mail me your details.

"Franc sings torch songs that unite and bring happiness, with undercurrents of the Italianesque corrido and a voice that gathers the tones of the great songsters of the American western migration - Woody Guthrie, Hank Williams, Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, the desperado chic of Gram Parsons, the New Orleans warmth of Randy Newman, the cool Canadian folk rock buccaneers, Neil Young and Joni Mitchell with Cat Stevens, Robbie Robertson (also a Canadian) and The Band, the hard working Italians (who built the cities of the North Eastern seaboard from New York to Baltimore) Bruce Springsteen and the venal mischief maker Frank Zappa. It?s all there. It?s all in Franc?s voice".
