It was my pleasure to sit down and chat with Brian Powers and Nicholas Gunty of Frances Luke Accord last week. Their latest EP is Silver and Gold.
Brian and Nick started playing guitars together while they were students at Notre Dame University. They have since recorded several EPs and one full-length album, and they're working on a second LP now. They also packed up their guitars and some recording equipment a few years ago and flew to Africa to work with and make a record with a children's choir from Uganda.
Frances Luke Accord were in the Twin Cities for a rescheduled show at the Warming House last week — the original date was in January but had to be rescheduled because … winter. The morning after their show at the Warming House, we were delighted to have them into the Radio Heartland studio for a live interview. Listen to the complete session using the audio player above.
