JW Francis is an artist who can’t sit still. Born in Oklahoma and raised in France, Francis started his music career in New York, where he first built a name for himself, before taking to the road, where he has lived for the past three years.
What makes Francis special is his connection to people: he writes over 100 Valentine’s Day songs a year for his fans’ loved ones and regularly goes on ‘Dream Tours’, where he plays only in unconventional venues like fans’ backyards, roller-skating rinks, children’s museums, and retirement homes.
Francis has earned his industry stripes opening up for acts like Mild High Club and Wild Nothing, consistently averaging 100 shows a year and solidifying himself as an indie mainstay.
