Praise for In Plain Sight:
“If there’s a name that you best be aware of in 2022, it’s Neal Francis.”
– SPIN
“Chicagoan singer-songwriter-pianist’s second LP opens with a barrelling triad...He digs deep on guileless rock and soul with bold flourishes a la Lowell George or Randy Newman.”
– MOJO – 4 stars
“What do Dr. John, Leon Russell, and boogie-woogie piano have in common?
Neal Francis is the answer.”
– KCRW
