Franc Moody’s sound is contemporary funk, awash with electronic inspiration, human touches, and throbbing grooves. Like Daft Punk and Jamiroquai before them, they draw from the sounds, styles and techniques of funk, disco and soul while simultaneously threading in electronic influences of the here and now. And over their short lifespan as a band they’ve shown a masterful knack for creating rich and textured bangers, like “Dopamine” and “Dance Moves” which have amassed more than 20 Million streams. Their hypnotic and free-form live show has garnered a cult following. Earlier this year they sold out London’s 1100 capacity ‘Heaven’, in the Summer played their debut at Glastonbury, took on thousands of festival goers in Germany and Pukkelpop in Belguim – and sold out their upcoming fall European dates in Amsterdam, Berlin, Paris and Copenghagen and have now annunced their biggest show to date at the o2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire, as well as their first US dates in LA, San Francisco, & NYC.
