Bio / Background
Karen Francis is a voice that simply must be experienced!
Francis possesses the rare gift of a pure, warm, and full sound; sincere and conversational interpretation and delivery; and soulful swing backed by a powerful and flexible instrument with which she demonstrates tremendous control, texture, and taste. She literally "plays with" a song. Her music reflects her warmth and is surely inspired by her southern upbringing and her naturally loving personality. She has an unusual sensitivity that is not found in most of the new vocalists in today's jazz scene - but one which is surely reminiscent of the great singers. She is always interested in what the story is about - which she is more than equipped with the power to tell. This she does indeed with a style and grace unmatched in today's vanguard of jazz singing.
Her work has been reviewed in major European and American periodicals and her music played on jazz radio abroad and at here at home.
