Dropping the name Pharrell tends to catch the attention of any music lover. 

When we heard that 20-year-old musician Francesco Yates has been working with Pharrell on his debut album, we were curious about the talents that the young Yates must possess. We invited Yates to do a First Play Live session with CBC Music, and let me tell you, the kid lives up to the hype. He has fantastic command of a dynamic soulful voice with a deadly falsetto. He's vicious on the rock guitar solos when it's time to let rip and he also plays piano. 

But it doesn't stop there, he also has a great sense of humour and the charisma and confidence to match his musical skills.
