If it wasn’t already obvious based on lead single “Texas,” Austin Band To Watch Font have completely transformed their sound for sophomore album American Bully XL. Whereas Font’s debut Strange Burden could loosely be described as dance-punk, I compared “Texas” to fellow Austin band Hovvdy’s gauzy indie-pop. Now comes a second single, which pushes further into new sonic territory.

The album opens with “Body & Mind,” a track that showcases a refined style. Cinelli’s intense voice carries an air of mystery. This quality hints at a retro charm reminiscent of great singer-songwriters. He grounds the atmosphere firmly in folk and indie sounds. It’s an introduction that envelops the listener, drawing them into his world.
Moving on, “Mudlarking” begins with a lovely arpeggio. The vocal delivery in this song evokes vibes akin to those of Bruce Springsteen. The heartfelt interpretation adds layers of emotion to the track. This connection to classic influences shines through, enriching his music with a sense of familiarity. The instrumentation complements the vocals beautifully, creating an engaging experience.
Next is “Starting Over,” another standout on the album. This song carries a slightly more intense and desert-like vibe. Its production emphasizes a sense of longing, inviting listeners to reflect. Cinelli’s minimalist approach shines through again, showcasing guitar and voice as the foundation of his music. This simplicity enhances the emotional depth.
“Follow Your Star” enchants with a more urgent rhythm. The lyrics are sweet and intense, inspiring a sense of hope. The energy of the track propels it forward, creating a stirring experience. This song adds a different layer to the album, displaying Cinelli’s versatility.
Transitioning into “Let This Time Be Kind,” the album recalls Eddie Vedder’s acoustic work for “Into the Wild.” This connection is evident in the gentle, folk-infused guitar passages. The fingerpicking creates a soothing atmosphere that cradles the listener. Once again, the emotional resonance is profound, encouraging a sense of connection. The lush melodies resonate long after the song concludes.
Closing the album is “Empires,” a track that starts with an air of mystery. The atmospheric quality of the song invites reflection and contemplation. The strategic use of pauses creates a spacious feeling, engaging the audience’s imagination. This unique structure encourages a meditative state, making it a profound ending to the album.
“Folk Kitchen” is a remarkable offering from Franc Cinelli. His ability to evoke deep emotions with minimalist arrangements is fantastic. Each song stands strong on its own while contributing to a cohesive experience. The narratives told throughout the album are relatable, layered with sincerity.
Cinelli has composed an album that resonates deeply, making it a must-listen for fans of folk and indie music. His work evokes memories of the past while grounding itself firmly in the present.
This album deserves recognition and is highly recommended for its emotional depth and authenticity. Franc Cinelli proves to be a talented singer-songwriter, capable of captivating his audience without elaborate production.
His unique approach invites listeners to explore their own feelings and experiences through his music. “Folk Kitchen” is a journey that unfolds with each track.
This album is a fantastic work by a gifted singer-songwriter. It intertwines narrative and melody, creating a lasting impact.

Two days ago, Aerosmith, who haven’t played live since abandoning their Peace Out…Farewell Tour in September 2023, teased an imminent return to live action, proclaiming that “all will be revealed tomorrow”. Tomorrow came and went without further details emerging, but now it’s official: Aerosmith are returning to the stage.
The band have announced that California, Dream On: Aerosmith & Friends will take place at the historic Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, California, on October 29 and November 1, and an impressive supporting cast has been lined up.
Joining Aerosmith will be Black Crowes, RUN DMC, Heart, Andrew Watt, Billy Idol, Chad Smith (RHCP), Duff McKagan (GN’R), Eric Church, Jerry Cantrell (Alice in Chains), Marcus King, Mike Inez (Alice In Chains), Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme), Pat Monahan (Train), Sammy Hagar, Slash (GN’R), Steve Stevens, Sully Erna (Godsmack), Tom Morello, Adam Wakeman, Audley Freed, Kenny Aronoff, with Don Was directing the action and further acts to be announced. The line-ups will vary by night.
Most excitingly for Aerosmith fans, it appears that drummer Joey Kramer, who hasn’t played with the band since their Deuces Are Wild residency in Las Vegas, Nevada, in early 2020, is back on board: a new publicity photo released by the band shows Kramer lined up beside Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, Brad Whitford and Tom Hamilton.
“I can testify to the fact that I never know what’s gonna happen with my band,” Kramer said in July, “I don’t know of anything right now. Nothing’s been mentioned or talked about. But you just never know.”
Tickets for California, Dream On: Aerosmith & Friends will go on general sale this Saturday at 10am Pacific, with band and Aero Force One presales taking place 10-11am the previous day, while Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets beginning Thursday at 10am.
California, Dream On: Aerosmith & Friends is billed as “two nights only”, but fans will hope that Boston, Dream On: Aerosmith & Friends or perhaps London, Dream On: Aerosmith & Friends will follow.
