Producer

What began as a pub band has morphed over the years into a one-man production band branded Lliam Francis, building an army of followers on Soundcloud and Reverbnation, with a presence too on Songtradr. The idea is to buy wav files by the artist directly from the artist. The artist, producer and composer is William Hudson, who goes by the name Lliam Francis on Soundcloud. Lliam is a multi-instrumentalist and freelance national newspaper journalist who is the nephew of composer William Blezard (1921/2003), screen legend Marlene Dietrich's musical director until the end of her cabaret career in the 1970s. The music on this site is a mix of genres, from house and disco, to rock and singer-songwriter. But it is all Hudson's own work, with influences ranging from John Barry to Daft Punk. Watch out for tracks like Mambo In Miami and Road To Providence (that's on Soundcloud but may be updated to this site pretty soon (William Hudson, 21/01/23). PS: It runs in the family: Please check out musician Stephen Hudson and the Dog Daisies from Lancashire.
PPS: Thanks for your feedback...
