Frances Luke Accord - The Boxer (Cover)

Check OUT Frances Luke Accord's "Nowhere to be Found" (   • Frances Luke Accord - Nowhere to be Found  ) ----------------------------------- When Nicholas Gunty and Brian Powers put their songs and their voices together, there is a delicate magic that commands the room to attention. The duo is known as Frances Luke Accord, and they are what NPR’s Mountain Stage calls “the definition of lean-in music.” Their soft, contemplative vintage of indie-folk gestures toward a timelessness that honors the Simon & Garfunkel comparisons but pushes beyond into the world of Bon Iver, Jose Gonzalez, and progressive folk music. The duo's newest release, SAFE IN SOUND, (co-produced with Don Mitchell of Darlingside) is a spacious and deeply textured indie folk record forged during COVID. A pulsing collection of sing-along earworms, it delivers a front-and-center view of the band’s signature tenor duo harmonies. With lyrics that often reflect the exasperation of artists struggling to hang on in a pandemic-worn industry, the album features a number of guest appearances (Darlingside, Liz Chidester, Yeshua, Chris Dupont, and Katie Van Dusen) as well as the fan favorites, "Maria," "This Morning," "In My Life," and "Dust to Dust." - Song: The Boxer Artist: Frances Luke Accord Band Members: Nick Gunty, Brian Powers Author: Paul Simon Audio Producer: Nick Gunty Video Producer: Malcolm Phelan First Performed by Simon and Garfunkel
