Americana-Soul duo

Freddy & Francine

poised to break out

The Americana Agency is pleased to announce that it has signed Freddy & Francine for exclusive North American representation. Freddy & Francine is an Americana-Soul duo comprised of Bianca Caruso and Lee Ferris. With voices reminiscent of Aretha Franklin and Van Morrison, their songs blend Soul, R&B, Folk, and Americana with a modern, yet timeless appeal to all ages. On their latest album, Gung Ho, the artists worked with by renowned producer Todd Sickafoose (Ani DiFranco, Andrew Bird, Anais Mitchell). Freddy & Francine will perform at Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Four Corners Folk Festival and other major 2017 festivals to be announced soon.

We would like to thank the artists' manager, Mike Rofé of MikeRo Management, for his help in the signing process. Also, a special shout-out to our good friends who helped introduce us to these exceptionally talented artists: Dustin Boyd of Planet Bluegrass and Billy and Dodee Crockett of Blue Rock Artist Ranch and Studio.

"...tight two-part harmonies, engaging songs that will shoot deep into your heart, and a musical chemistry that is second-to-none..." - No Depression

"...the kind of perfect harmonies that send a gripping shiver down the backbone of the listener." - Deli Magazine

"They evoke the strong swelling songwriting of Neko Case, the soulful impulses of fellow folk singer Ray Lamontagne, and are both possessed of honeyed voices in the ageless vein of Aretha Franklin and Frank Sinatra. Add a dash of that old renegade country sound. Sounds like a tall order, but they deliver in spades." - SFCritic

"Freddy & Francine once again commanded the full attention of their followers with their passion and energy ... The two lead singers (Lee Ferris & Bianca Caruso) channeled this passion and energy surrendering themselves to their music like Gospel singers at a revival." - examiner.com
