Paul R Francis is from Liverpool in the UK. 
I'd played bass in bands for years, then just got into writing and demoing with various people in the hope of publishing, then got fed up and went into painting and design. But got an iMac and iPad and started recording again and found new outlets and found new inspiration so am looking for lyrical/singing collaborators to again reach out to the publishing world.

When you’re the only British artist in a Country music line-up featuring Fort Worth’s finest at this year’s Texas Music Takeover Festival 2017, in London, it takes more than just a powerful voice and a No.3 hit in the UK Country iTunes Charts to blow the boots off a sold-out crowd. It takes a sheer volume of authenticity. Something rising star Jeannine Barry carries in spades.


 


Jeannine’s roots may lie in the UK, but the way she effortlessly tunes into the humble, raw and emotional candour of true Country onstage has allowed her to build a loyal fan base worldwide. Following a range of prestigious support slots, appearances and an invitation to headline the launch party for the UK’s biggest country music festival C2C (Country 2 Country) 2017 she packed her bags for Nashville, recording and touring with Blake Shelton’s guitarist, Kevin Post.


 


 “Her voice and talent are not only moving and honest but “Authentically Country”. It has been a while, since my days teaching Beyoncé Knowles actually, that I have been so excited about teaching a young performer.” - David Lee Brewer, Star Vocal Coach. 


Jeannine’s sincerity, honest lyrics and exceptional talent, continue to propel her. Often compared to Carrie Underwood, LeAnn Rimes and Emmylou Harris, Jeannine feels appreciative to be included in such company. Humble, her music is a force. Her unique blend of empowering fun-filled tinged stompers and bittersweet country ballads, will have you running to the dance floor to kick the dust off your heels.


 


After a hugely successful headline show in London, Jeannine has started 2018 off with her new music release 'Sweet Spot' in time for her sets at this year's Country 2 Country festival at The O2, London and has recorded an 'Under The Apple Tree' session for Bob Harris. This is just the beginning of an exciting and promising year for Jeannine Barry.

Sugar Ray Dogs’ sound comes from an original combination of rock’n’roll, spaghetti western, country, Tex-Mex and American roots wisely mixed in the spontaneous songwriting by Ernani “Ray” Natarella, leading voice and bass player of the band.

This mix is made explosive by Andrea “Bisteur” Paradiso’s refined and effective drumming and by the twangy sound of Alberto Steri’s guitar.

Since the beginning, Sugar Ray Dogs carried their music abroad, playing in live club and festival in Germany, Holland and France, getting positive audience response soon. It was in Germany that they made their first move in recording, adding two tracks to the compilation “Wild Rockin’ and Boppin’ Christmas” published for Vampirette Records, Frankfurt.

In 2011 they released their first album, “Vaudeville’n’Roll”, unveiled in Maloe Melo, Amsterdam, the first date of an Europen tour that brought the band around many live clubs and festival – such as Wageningen in Holland, where the band played for 10000 people.

In 2012 Sugar Ray Dogs’ music reached Japan, where Rude Runner Records started the distribution of “Vaudeville’N’Roll”, released in special edition.

The positive feedback received for “Vaudeville’N’Roll” album and tour encouraged the band to plan a new album and by the end of the year the band was working on “Sick Love Affair”.

This time the project was bigger and the band managed to realize a dream: Freddy Koella (who played guitar with Bib Dylan, Willy Deville, Kdlang …) enriched four tracks of the album with his magic guitar and violin. Moreover, other great musicians has been involved in the project, such as Matteo Cerboncini (who played guitar with Gianluca Grignani) and Anga Persico (who played violin with Davide Van De Sfroos). Mixing and mastering by Niccolò Fragile (producer of Mina, Eros Ramazzotti, Vasco Rossi, Stadio, Gotthard) added the final touch to “Sick Love Affair”.

This time the band presented the album in Italy, in the beautiful Martinetti Theatre in Garlasco. On stage, Ernani, Andrea and Alberto played with some of the guests who played in the record.

In the summer of 2013, another tour took them to stages all over Northern Europe and Italy.

In 2014 Sugar Ray Dogs started to work with Paolo Pagetti, producer of RIVERTALE PRODUCTIONS. Together they are working on the new album that is eventually leading them towards Tex-Mex sound.

In the summer of 2014 the band reached Texas to shot the videoclip of “Mexi-Cola”, title track of the new album. The video director is Teresa Jolie and the cast includes the well known actor Billy Blair (The Last Stand, Machete, Machete Kills and Sin City 2). Besides, the band performed in some clubs in Austin and started a collaboration with Patricia Vonne, Alex Ruiz, Rick and Mark Del Castillo, Joel Guzman and David Hidalgo from Los Lobos. All these artists will take part in the new album that will be released in 2015.

Formerly thrilling live shows are now further enriched by the material of the new album. Band plays both in electric and acoustic version.
