ABOUT

Francesca is a singer-songwriter residing in Cape Town, South Africa.


She was born in Bari, South Italy, a multi-cultured seaside town famous for its Greek, Arabic, and Turkish influences. Growing up with access to such rich and varied diversity helped inform her spontaneous and non-conformist musical path.

Inspiring many musicians and fans alike, her heartfelt and skilled vocal delivery are perfectly matched to her delicate guitar playing and instrumental complexity.


Drawing from influences, including Ella Fitzgerald, ASA, Amy Winehouse and Hiatus Kaiyote, Francesca's contemporary blend of gypsy-jazz and neo-soul , nu-pop offer listeners a deep and original insight into her creative process.Regardless of the name you choose to pin on the simultaneously smooth and soulful sound, her emerging and progressive approach to music has captured the attention of the music scene.


Francesca's new album, IKIGAI was released on the 20 of January 2019. In keeping with the Japanese concept of the same name, Ikigai strives to guide followers to a long and happy life through the convergence of four primary elements:


What you love (your passion), what the world needs (your mission), what you are good at (your vocation), what you can get paid for (your profession). Discovering your own 'Ikigai' is said to bring fulfilment and happiness with this album representing Francesca's Ikigai, bringing together a wealth of life experience both musically and personally. 


Joining Francesca on the evening; Nick Williams on keys, Zwide Ndwandwe on bass and Damian Kamineth on drums.
