Steve Lamacq: "Yet the most important thing about Frankie & The Heartstrings is that you can%u2019t describe them. Not easily. Not in a handy new genre (although you can bet we%u2019ll try). Their songs veer all over the shop; choosing to eschew the in-vogue %u201880s and instead root around in rock and roll, northern soul, punk and skiffle."
