New Song - Eternity
Francis Rodino - Eternity
Brand new song. Video footage was shot on the morning of the 2nd February snowfall in 2009. I wrote this song over the weekend, and was moved and inspired at the way people came together to play in the snow. London stood still. So did time. There's only good in the snow.

- "One night, in the middle of a deep sleep, my phone rang. At the other end of the line were a few drunk Uruguayan kids. They were very loud, partying and proceeded to sing a very drunken version of my song "Burn".
These drunken kids were none other than members of the very talented Uruguayan SellaBand band, Bonnie.
My point is that making 50k is just one important part of the puzzle...." - The Other Side of Francis Rodino

- "With a voice that has impressed us all, and a presence on our platform that is difficult to ignore, Francis Rodino has begun his steady rise to the upper regions of our artists pages. Bold, brass and ambitious, this is a man who won't take no for an answer. But in this Q+A at least we got to ask the questions..."

This is an English quartet with some songs you should hear. Rather than go the tried and untrue route of a million failures, Francis Rodino and his mates are doing things their way, pitching their tent on the Web and offering six of..." - Francis Rodino Band at the Ayelsbury Hobble on the Cobbles
- "What a great day it was, I woke up expecting it to be a wash out, but by about 12 noon the skies had cleared and I set-off for Aylesbury for the annual Hobble on the Cobbles. I spent a bit of time listening to a few acts before meeting up with Francis and the band. One band in particular caught my eye and that was Loz Jones, cracking set. They were the opening act and set the tone for the rest of the day...."
- Circles And Squares, Francis Rodino's Debut | Pete Strobl
- "Francis Rodino's album, Circles And Squares has been a long time coming but early fan reactions indicate that the native New Yorker's London production was well worth the wait. Having written a few reviews of some notable Sellaband artists during their larval stages I am now saddling up to review a finished product which will be judged by the public in comparison to and in competition with the albums made by major recording artists."
