The Talks interview

Interview0 Comments

Francis gives an interview to The Talks. He discusses what makes music timeless, his relationship with music, and painting.

Yeah, I paint. Sometimes I paint my children. I have a studio that I paint in. I’m going to go paint in it today, in fact. It feels good on your brain. It’s very primal. People have been painting since people have been people. You put some color on your finger or on a feather or on a piece of wood and you make a mark on the wall, you know? You make a mark on a great stone. This is something people have been doing since before they were writing words.
