When you name a track after a guitar-slaying rock icon, you set a high bar for the song's quality and its performance. Canadian singer/songwriter Francesco Yates lives up to that standard with his performance of his Jimi Hendrix-inspired single, "Jimi."
Operating somewhere between Hendrix and '90s R&B/pop, the bold forthcoming single allows Yates to show off his diverse skill set. Watch the 26-year-old Toronto native perform the captivating track below in his episode of Press Play At Home.
After being propelled into stardom following his contribution on Robin Schulz's 2015 multi-platinum track "Sugar," Yates earned an opening slot on Justin Timberlake’s Man of the Woods Tour from 2018 to 2019. Three years later, the multi-instrumentalist has proven he’s more than ready for his own spotlight.
Check out Yates' must-see performance above, and keep track of new episodes of Press Play At Home every Thursday.
