NEW YORK (Top40 Charts/ Francis Jocky Official Website) - On December 9th, 2008, multitalented singer, songwriter & producer Francis Jocky will release his much anticipated second solo project, an EP entitled SANCTIFIED. Produced and recorded in New York City, the EP features some of music top producers and recording engineers, including extraordinary writer Andrew Wyatt and Grammy Award Winner Scott Jacoby (John Legend, Ayo, Naturally Seven, etc.).
On "SANCTIFIED" Jocky blends aspects of Classic Rock n' Roll, Pop, and Soul into a patchwork of tracks that will find a home in any true music lover's collection.
Blessed with a rich vocal range, the songs are upbeat, pleasing, and Jocky's lyrics are warm, inviting and yes- intellectual. Critically acclaimed for his recorded music as well as his show stopping live performances, Francis Jocky has received accolades from journalists to artists. After sharing the microphone with stars like Jon Anderson, Stevie Wonder and Bono, the legendary U2 frontman said, "Francis, You're a star!" Francis Jocky is something of an enigma, an artist with an universal appeal. Jocky has developed a sound that transcends borders.
