Francesca Sidoti

“A dulcet voice and whimsical lyrics” (Rave Magazine). “Smiles and laughter” (Drum Media). “An amazing songwriter” (Faster Louder). As part of the new generation of Australian singer-songwriters, Francesca Sidoti’s performances have been garnering rave reviews as she tours Australia, promoting her album ‘Bright City Light Fool’.  

Winner of the prestigious Lis Johnston Award for Vocal Excellence in 2006 and a regular of the Blue Mountains, Cobargo, Illawarra and National music festivals since she was 16, Francesca’s music reflects the soundtrack she has been surrounded by, the likes of Nina Simone, and Janis Ian.

Since the release of the album, Francesca has played close to every state and territory in the country, bagged high rankings in the AMRAP charts for her single ‘Happy’, supported the likes of Matt Corby, The Bakery and the great Steve Poltz and wooed audiences from Cooktown to Hobart

Francesca’s songs aren’t easy to define. A blend of retro pop, folk ballads, and occasional slips into gospel and blues, they’re songs that have a sound, harking back to the integrity of guitar creaks and foot stomps. Bright City Light Fool is her debut release.
