Track of the day: Fuller French – I’ll leave a Key by the Door

Some say chivalry is dead, but they haven’t met Fuller French. This Texas born and bred singer, songwriter and pianist is known for swooning audiences with romantic lyrics and his debonair demeanor. Mused by the quick witted banter ensuing one’s innate search for love and beauty, his music conjures memories of a lost love or a golden afternoon sprinkled with languorous decadence.

French’s music, however, isn’t cloying love songs; he’s respectively gained interest from famous musicians such as Carole King, Laurindo Almeida and Burt Bacharach. French credits his ever growing fanbase for his thoughtful regard to the way men and women feel when infatuation or true love sparks. As he implies, it’s the aura of possibility that permeates through a new relationship, the flirtatious tango that lovers sway to all night long, and in his own words, “that feeling that no one is truly alive but us.”

French began playing piano at an early age in a traditional pursuit of the arts encouraged by his worldly parents. By high school he was writing his own music and lyrics with an intent to one day share the best of his talents with the girl of his dreams and the world at large. The virtues that are essential to his art: intelligent understanding of lyrics, a deep empathy with his audience and his perfect taste in melodic material are prevalent in every charismatic moment. With music in his heart and mind, his initial performances covered the icons of rock and roll like Elton John at house parties for his many interesting friends. Now, French plays his own music and records at the world famous Capitol Records in Los Angeles.

Released in May of 2019, his EP featuring the title song ‘Champagne Rendezvous’ was a swift success. Reaching #29 on the Mediabase AC chart, with a mention in Billboard Magazine, French has catapulted from the jazzy waves of his first album ‘Something Wonderful’ into a new territory of success. His second single off of ‘Champagne Rendezvous’ titled ‘I’ll Leave a Key by the Door’ is a smokey Southern tune about a long lost love affair, co-written with Cassandra Delaney (former wife of John Denver.) Fans of Fuller French will be shocked when his next single releases in November, an EDM remix of the beloved ‘Champagne Rendezvous’ title track. Stay tuned!
