Earlier this month, Francis Bourgeois met up with Sam Fender and his band while attending the BandLab NME Awards 2022 at Brixton Academy. The TikToker’s other famous fans include Joe Jonas and Thierry Henry.
Rosalía, meanwhile, released her third album ‘Motomami’ last Friday (March 18). In a glowing five-star review, NME described its contents as some of “the most thrilling, forward-thinking and discombobulating music we’re likely to hear all year”.
It added: “Rosalía isn’t so much carving out her own lane as building her own ultra-modern, super-bendy sonic motorway. It’s one you’ll want to hurtle down again and again.”
