Team Francis is a synthpop trio that has been all over local bills lately and with tunes as infectious as the ones featured on “2015 Demo” it’s no surprise. The group features siblings Samantha Gates on vocals and keys and Ivan Gates on drums as well as Roo Burns on guitar. Their demos were recorded in Carson City by Ivan and Samantha’s father Vince at the music store he owns called Play Your Own Music.
