Dundalk is a town associated with producing a plethora of talented bands and artists. If you read our Lowdown On Dundalk feature youo will have came across one of the most prolific songwriters from the town, Francis Watters.

He's been making quite the impression over the past few years as the frontman of RichardRichard. He's got  more than one string to his bow though and his latest venture Francis Watters & The Future West sees Watters explore a wilder brand of music than he's normally associated with.

Francis Watters & The Future West's debut single Call Me Stupid  is a brash psychedelic stomp of wild kinetic energy. It's a mightily promising start for the band.

Francis Watters & The Future West launch Call Me Stupid in The Spirit Store, Dundalk, this Friday (26th).
