Hannah Frances is a vocalist, guitarist, composer, and poet who NPR’s Ann Powers calls “a stunning vocalist and songwriter, making monumental and mythic music.” Frances was awarded Pitchfork’s Best New Music for her critically acclaimed 2024 album Keeper of the Shepherd. A persistent troubadour, Frances lives in Vermont with roots in Chicago, though she is most often touring internationally and nationally, opening for artists such as Robin Pecknold of Fleet Foxes, Florist, Hurray for the Riff Raff, The Weather Station, Whitney, and Damien Jurado.
