Track of the Week: Fatboys Cafe
Wearing their heart of their sleeve as vividly as ever, on Fatboys Cafe Frankie Stew welcomes in the next stage of his personal and artistic development over Harvey Gunn’s meticulously moving instrumental.
FS & HG have built a name for themselves in the UK alternative space based on emotion and authenticity. Frankie’s lyricism never tries to be too clever, and his casually charismatic delivery atop Harvey’s poignant beats has set them apart from the rest. Their dense and unique discography is continuously evolving, with a growing list of impressive features and textured bodies of work.
Fatboys Cafe is the latest in a long line of sensitive bangers from the duo. Accompanied by a typically picturesque and intimate visual, Gunn’s gentle groove is spritely and spirited, constantly moving forward rhythmically and sonically. Frankie encapsulates his hope and personality with bars about the next stage of his life with his family, growing and developing as a bloke, and his musical ambitions. This song is Tuesday night down the boozer with your oldest mate. Get everything you need to off your chest lad.
