A guy with some guitars, harmonicas, percussive odds & ends... Beyond that, you tell me:
Japhy Francis hails from a long and distinguished line of musical people with the "ffff" sound somewhere in their name. He has no documentation to back this up, but boasts of it regularly at cocktail parties.
Using a machine that converts sound into invisible ones and zeroes, Japhy records his original ditties with a variety of instruments. Many of them, such as acoustic guitar and harmonica, are easily recognizable by their recognizable sound.
Japhy doesn't especially favor any single genre of music, but he likes interesting people who make interesting sounds and say interesting things. Sometimes Japhy thinks he says interesting things. Sometimes he just says silly things. But sometimes he thinks silly things can be interesting. Even important. Sometimes.
Vital Stats:
Height: 8 ft, 4 in.
Weight: A lady never tells.
Age: A lady sometimes tells.
Fave Citrus: The Grapefruit
Fave Map Feature: The Compass Rose
Least Fave Abbreviation: "Fave" for "Favorite"
