When Guitars Come Out To Play

About This Song

Touring over the last almost 20 years as Camille and Stuie, the husband and wife duo became beloved in Australia. Stuie is a monster player with chops that meld the virtuosity and instinct of jazz with the clear tone and restraint of American hillbilly roots music. Camille holds a once-in-a-generation voice: somehow both crisply expressive and immeasurably rich and smooth, she can sit back to soothe in a pocket before jumping out to thrill. Now based in Nashville and with the addition of middle son Sonny on stage, The French Family is acclimating to life stateside, deep roots in tow. "When Guitars Come Out to Play" was written in 2025 by Stuart French, Sonny French, and Jim “Moose” Brown. Inspired by life as a family band, it reflects the balance between strong family values and the magic that happens when late-night guitar jams take over. It showcases the edgier side of our sound.
