Francesca Biancoli on Kofifi FM 97.2

--:--
Cape Town based, Italian singer and songwriter, Francesca Biancoli strives for authenticity in the music she creates.

Drawing from her lived experiences, her work reflects the daring and explorative style and approach to music, a contemporary melting of Jazz and Neo-Soul, offering audiences a fun and original sound.

Francesca’s origins are influenced by the Greek, Arabic, and Turkish cultures which has in turn helped her create a spontaineous and non conforming musical path, creating music that speaks to self-awareness, the beauty of multiculturalism, life and spirituality in music.

We caught up with her during the "Hour Africa" feature this Sunday.
