The songs of Janove Ottensen's solo album, Francis' Lonely Nights, paint a series of portraits that go far beyond the standard singer/songwriter fare. These stories are complemented by arrangements that take unexpected turns and provide the perfect frame for the pictures the lyrics create. Ottesen hails Byrne, Norway--population 7000.
