Italian singer born September 10th, 1972 in Florence. Francesca's musical career started in the 90's as a singer in the italian vocal ensemble Jubilee Shouters by which she recorded the album Black & Blue under the Sensible Records (3) label. In the meantime she collaborated with other labels as a vocalist for a few dance projects, such as the Sensible Records (3) label being both vocalist and frontwoman for the Euro House/Italodance project Lady Violet and so winning a Golden Disc.
In 2003, despite the success achieved, she decided to leave the Lady Violet project to pursue an acting career and took part in the acting company Laboratorio 9.
After obtaining a degree in literature she started playing guitar and writing lyrics and in 2008 she started singing again, these time in the italian rock project La Materia Strana releasing an E.P. titled Raptus.
Finally in 2012 she reached what she had always pursued: making her own style and concept of music and so working for the first time in her own solo project Femina Ridens.
