Fran - "Leaving" | Album Review
Leaving is the second full length release from Midwest indie folk band Fran (aka Maria Jacobson), continuing on the path of heartbreaking longing and beautiful melodies powered by her stunning vocals. Jacobson's ability to weave entrancing tales is jaw-dropping, reinforced by the very compelling material throughout the album.

Fran - "A Private Picture" | Album Review
Every moving piece on this album serves to complement and elevate the lyrics. In that way, A Private Picture takes on the surprising life as a blues record – granted, it doesn’t have the same sound of a blues record, but it certainly feels like one, with its tasteful instrumentation and intimate portrait of its narrator.
