Jason Hoss Hicks joins us this day for the WDVX Blue Plate Special.
Singer-songwriter Francesca Brown is a California native, steeped in the sound and visual traditions of the Southwest. Her love for old timey country and folk is offset by an inherent Laurel Canyon meets California Country vibe. All of these influences coexist in her evocative soundscapes, which fall somewhere between Joni Mitchell and Loretta Lynn.
Brown’s early life wasn’t always easy moving between southern California and rural Illinois . Home life became a serious challenge, from her teen years on, in many ways Francesca raised herself. Work ethic was important and she jumped in at an early age and kept on with this cycle never slowing down. It’s that work ethic and being a mother of two, all while hustling to make ends meet, that truly makes her music country.
