Francesca Blanchard

French singer-songwriter Francesca Blanchard's signature brand of acoustic folk music incorporates influences of jazz and rock’n roll. Living in Vermont , she writes in both languages and her dual citizenship definitely holds a big spot in her music-making. It’s her way of sharing both worlds at once, of marrying my two sides. Music is language in itself , as she says . She gave rein to a growing interest in production, marking a departure from her acoustic roots. The result is melodic indie-pop bursting with bold vulnerability, cathartic relief and a refreshing dose of self-awareness ... a direction that demonstrates the artist's evolving critical consciousness and relish for catchy hooks.
