Heston

Though often slotted into the contemporary R&B category for convenience, Heston Francis crafts a refined take on the genre that weaves in reggae, folk, and additional global influences. His goal is to create tracks that retain their vitality well beyond the current moment. A native of Dominica now residing in Atlanta, this multifaceted performer—active as a singer, songwriter, producer, and instrumentalist—has issued several notable full-length projects: Storyteller (2008), Warm Human Cold World (2011), Love Junkie (2013), and Transparency (2016). While his live work has reached audiences across the globe, the final entry in that sequence most fully captured his “world soul” sensibility through sessions held across the United States, the Caribbean, England, and the Netherlands.
