From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pete Francis Heimbold is a solo musical artist formally of the band Dispatch
Being a talented guitarist, bassist, and singer, Heimbold pursued a very successful musical career with the independent band Dispatch for eight years, and is now continuing to write, play, and record solo. Drawing inspiration from his studies of Irish poetry and art from around the world, Francis writes songs with deep, meaningful lyrics, and varying instrumental styles.
Francis currently co-owns the Mighty Toad recording studio with saxophonist Craig Dreyer. He will continue to tour on his own in 2007, but will also be playing at Dispatch: Zimbabwe on July 13th, 14th, and 15th. The band is reuniting for a non-profit concert to benefit Zimbabwe.
On April 5th, 2007, Francis, while playing an Elias Fund benefit show at Homewood-Flossmoor High School, south of Chicago, announced that his best friend Boo Reiners would be touring with him in the coming year, and be on his next CD. This was Reiners first performance with Francis, and he plays guitar and well as lap steel guitar.
