Fransisca London

Fransisca London has just completed her full length alternative pop album entitled “New Girl in Town” and her music has been featured nationally on XM Satellite Radio and Music Choice “Hit List.” In May 2007, she hit #1 Pop Punk track on GarageBand.com and landed the #1 spot for “AC/Hot AC Most Added” on national radio. She has also had a number of dance track releases in the UK, as well as doing vocals in ‘The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy’ film and shot a promo piece for iTunes. Fransisca London was born in Stuttgart Germany. She is an American citizen with dual citizenship. Her father was in the Air Force (Yes she was an air force brat!) but he passed away at an early age. Her mother is Northern Irish which is where her family is based now. But like most Americans she is a bit mixed because her great grandparents were from Poland, The Ukraine, Ireland and France. Fransisca has always been fascinated by music and the theater. Her mother is an accomplished piano player and she grew up listening to her play and used to sit at the piano and make up little songs etc. Her father was a huge rat pack fan and he loved old fashioned singers like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, Bing Crosby etc. So she also grew up listening to old vinyl records. Fransisca grew up performing. She started out doing dance and figure skating and loved expressing herself to music. She also loved performing in school musicals and school plays. She was a competitive figure skater until she went to boarding school in Northern Ireland which is where she began singing. She started singing in a piano/restaurant bar and earned herself good tips as the “singing waitress.” She went to college at the University of Glasgow in Scotland where she began getting recording work as a session singer, as well as singing her way round all the open mic nights and being a member of several "crappy bands." She graduated early with a master’s honors degree in Social and Economic History and it was then she moved to London to seriously pursue musical ambitions. After singing in the clubs and singing covers at open mic nights and showcases, she soon began to get some demos of her own material together and began sending her demo’s around. Now she collaborates with some of the best writers in the UK and has recently begun co-writing with a few artists. She wrote all the songs on her upcoming album entitled “New Girl in Town” while working with various producers. Her full 15 track album is available at iTunes, MSNmusic, Real Rhapsody, and many other digital distribution outlets.
