Cape Francis Announces New Album, 'Deep Water'

Cape Francis has announced their sophomore album, Deep Water, today at with the new single "Button Up", a rumination on juggling your passions and your day job and how to hold true to your convictions in the process, which Consequence of Sound calls a "fine slice of indie rock, bits of percolating guitar and longing vocals to match the anxiety and melancholy of his daily hustle." Late last year Cape Francis followed up their 2017 debut LP "Falling Into Pieces" with a respite from the daily grind on the gritty pop tune "Nobody", a track that acts as an escape for a moment to get your bearings, to find yourself in the serenity of putting it all on hold and finding yourself some space.

Cape Francis is the solo project of Kevin Olken Henthorn, former singer/songwriter of Stone Cold Fox. After the break up of a band that worked heavily in traditional pop structures and production, Henthorn started the new project as a way to break form and reconnect to a natural flow of instrumentation and storytelling.

Henthorn started playing guitar when he was nine years old. He studied music with teachers ranging from classical to blues to metal, but by the time he was 15 he decided to commit solely to writing his material. For Henthorn, the writing was a way to learn and push his fundamentals and discovery became intrinsic to each new piece he wrote.

Cape Francis is meant as a way to return to that mentality, to re-approach a relationship with an instrument after years of feeling stuck in indie rock power-chords. Cape Francis pulls from folk and modern influences alike to bring the listener to a feel-good place where familiarity and discovery are both at the forefront.
