Recap and stuffs

I moved from South of France to Berlin, Germany, in January 2012 and I'm still based here as we speak.
I've started this "Francois Sky & Guests" kind of band to consolidate, somehow, what I was doing under one only name as I got tired to have way too many names out there.

#1/ 30/07/14 Opening for Dean Wareham, PrivatClub Berlin. With Tino B.

PrivatClub, Berlin
 #2/ 5/09/14 London Water Rats for Goodsouls Promotions & Northern Star Records on Kontakte new album release party, with 93MMFTS. With Tino B., Joe Chapman (The Neon Violets).

I had to turn down / cancel a few gigs along the way as, for some reasons, it would have been complicated to play these. Sometimes life gets in the way, you know it, and there are both primary and secondary priorities.

So far, just under this name, there are many tracks released on labels/blogs/compilations/records like The Active Listener, Mind Expansion, TBTCI, Fuzz Club Records and too many to mention, from Japan to Brazil and Sweden to Wherethefuckaboutistan.

I'm not so keen on playing live too often and I do my very best to not be depending on my music to have a decent life. It's just a choice of mine, I've been on both side of this fence and really prefer to not have to worry too much about the casual things, so for that, a regular job helps a lot.
This said, I'm recording some new things since a while and just wait for the right moment to put it out there.
