Frenchie, the Franco-English singer-songwriter formerly known as the Naked Eye, has announced her self-titled debut album. Produced by jazz guitarist Femi Temowo (SAULT, Amy Winehouse), the LP arrives on March 28. To mark the announcement, the artist has shared the track ‘Love Reservoir’, which features vocals by Frida Touray. Check it out below.
“‘Love Reservoir’ lyrically explores the theme of seeking to refuel and revitalise a relationship’s emotional reservoir, symbolising a desire to overcome challenges and nurture love and connection,” Frenchie said in a statement. “Femi and I wrote the song together – and I knew I wanted my talented friend Frida Touray to feature on the track. When she came down to record her vocals, the song was elevated to a whole new level.”
Frenchie features keys player Luke Smith, KOKOROKO drummer Ayo Salawu, backing vocals from Hohnen Ford and Friday Touray, and additions instrumental and production contributions from Aaron Taylor, Alex Maydew, Chris Hyson, and Jas Kayser.
