S.08 E.07 – Francesco Artusato of Light The Torch

Send us Fan MailSeasoned guitarist Francesco Artusato joins us in today's episode as he and his band, Light The Torch, get ready for the drop of their sophomore beast of a record, “You Will Be The Death Of Me.” Joining forces with Ryan Wombacher, Alex Rudinger, and one of modern metal's more recognized voices, Howard Jones – Fran talks about how complete this record feels now more than ever. Even with the pandemic being an obstacle for him, it was just another test to the band's might to put everything on this album that translated from their blood, sweat, and tears. Fran takes us through his own personal journey which involves his work and dedication as a 3D artist, all the while working on the album art with the new music that heavily involves themes and in-depth concepts. Their previous debut album landed Light The Torch #4 on the Billboard US Independent Albums Chart and at #10 on the Hard Rock Albums Chart. Pressure to write the follow up? Perhaps, but with the arsenal of talented musicians surrounding Fran – he knew they were in good hands with this new record.
