WHAT WE SAY

​There's a very real synergy between Wil Bolton and Francis Gri on their new ambient duet for Gri's Krysalisound label. It's a magical electroacoustic wonderland where the soundscape is verdant, the sonic aesthetic is warm and the natives are naked, unashamed and smiling.

WHAT THE RELEASE NOTES SAY

Imaginary Tales is the first collaboration between Wil Bolton and Francis Gri. Recorded last year between London and Milan, this album signals a wonderful start to 2022 for Krysalisound. 

These six tracks are the perfect sum of the individual sounds of Wil and Francis and their natural propensity to delicate and intimate sonorities. They are rendered with a broad sonic palette that includes modular synth, acoustic and electric guitars, sansula, electric piano, mellotron, found sounds and field recordings. 

Imaginary Tales is an exploration of dreaming landscapes and lonely moments. Each song could be a story, a story without words. Each title is just the beginning of where your imagination may take you if you just close your eyes.
