Neal Francis joins host Raina Douris

Neal Francis recorded his latest album, In Plain Sight, in a Chicago church – AND, he was living in the parsonage of that church at the time. How he got there is part of Neal’s pursuit over the past few years to save himself. Hear his story on the next World Cafe – We’ll find out the kind of salvation he’s found, how it impacted his music, and why he thinks the church he called home may have been haunted. Plus, Neal Francis performs live.
