François Marius unleashes a soulful swagger with “Who Let the Dogs In?”

Canadian Genre-Blender François Marius Unleashes “Who Let the Dogs In?” François Marius is deepening his place within the global soul community with the current release of his R&B/Soul single. What makes “Who Let the Dogs In? stand out isn’t the title or the infectious groove but the personality behind every note. The sounds of his songs become full of international flavors and original music, proving that he is not afraid to take risks and have a damn good time doing so.

Written, played, and sung entirely by Marius himself, the groove-laden bass, punchy drums, and, of course, those unique and rich lead vocals,  “Who Let the Dogs In?” doesn’t walk into the room; it swaggers. Winking and grooving out, Marius flips the script on a well-trodden phrase into a bold and original anthem bursting with style and playful charm.

“Who Let the Dogs In?” is sassy without being corny, soulful without being predictable, and irresistibly rhythmic without sacrificing its message. Beneath the surface, there’s a sly wit, although it never looms larger than musical craft. When you’re dancing around your living room or need a burst of swagger to help get you through the day, this track has both the bark and the bite to impress.

The playing is dense and deliberate, and the bassline bounces with a laidback cool that can only come from somebody who feels the pocket. The drumming is tight and unfussy, and its heartbeat is unfailing throughout the track. And Marius’s vocal delivery? Smooth, fun, and characteristically self-assured, but not asking permission; he’s kicking the door down and letting the good vibes flow.
