Dream Pop from Frank Rabeyrolles

Emerging from the ‘new’ French music scene, Frank Rabeyrolles is an artist with a long and celebrated music career. Originally operating more anonymously, as an enigmatic musician shrouded by the mysteries of various different aliases, he first caught the attention of listeners in 2004 with the debut record of his Double u project with the album Life behind the window.

Going on to share more music as Double u, then under the moniker Franklin, his change of artistic banner reflected his need to constant change. By 2011, he was ready to bare his real name and set out on a new solo venture as Frank Rabeyrolles.

Releasing the first album under his new name the following year with #8, he’s since shared a string of dazzling releases over the last decade that showcase his unique sonic vision that flows between experimental, folk, lo-fi and ambient styles. Now, following the release of 2021’s EP A Ghost by the Sea, he brings us his latest work with the new single titled “Merry Go Round”.

Lifted from his upcoming record Boat Songs, via Wool Recordings and Le Vinyl Truck, with “Merry Go Round” Frank Rabeyrolles crafts a delicate and dreamy folk pop sound. Full of softly delivered and alluring melodic vocal work and backed up with a graceful arrangement of acoustic guitar and subtle percussion, Frank Rabeyrolles offers a stunning new song to build the excitement for his forthcoming album.
