Americana/Folk Singer-Songwriter Joe Francis is Winter Mountain.
Hailing from the wild and beautiful northern shores of Cornwall, Winter Mountain is an extraordinary talent. His soulful approach to songwriting and performance are reminiscent of a time before digital recording, when the emphasis fell on the importance of the performance and the essence of the song.
A skilled multi-instrumentalist Winter Mountain was first brought to the attention of the greater public gallery when Cara Dillon signed him to her label after watching a performance in Donegal.
Since then Winter Mountain has released two successful albums and toured with Cara Dillon, Seth Lakeman, Seal, Guy Garvey, Richard Thompson, Patty Griffin, Rosanne Cash and many more. Recent times have seen him perform at Glastonbury, featured in Total Guitar magazine and perform live sessions for BBC Radio 2.
Winter Mountain will be playing many new songs including a showcase of his latest project “From the Beacon to the Brea”, a collection of songs inspired by the myths and legends of Cornwall, as well as his impressive back catalogue of folk/pop tracks. Do not miss this show!
