   About Fran Rodgers
Born in 1982 to an English father and a French mother, Fran Rodgers was raised with her twin sister in an old mining town in Nottinghamshire. Hours spent listening to her parents records inspired a love of Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen and, later, the likes of Nick Drake, Nick Cave and Jeff Buckley. Following a move to Leeds in 2000 Fran discovered a passion for singing and, self-taught on the guitar, she began to write. Performing alone or with a little help from good friends Bruce Renshaw, Lins Wilson and Jon Foulger, she transports the listener into the fragile world she paints of love, loss and hope.

Fran Rodgers is a breath of fresh air in a world dominated by Rock and Pop. Her music is timeless, her lyrics engaging, her voice pure and graceful. She is a rare talent, whose music will pull at the heart strings and leave its mark on the listener long after the final notes have faded away.

Hi Fran thanks for the add. I've been to a few of your shows and always enjoy the music and unique atmosphere they create, it's very special.

I'm a Leeds based singer-songwriter too, although I'm very new to the whole world. If you get a chance to listen to any of my songs that'd be great.

Hope to catch you at a gig soon.
