Franco's
music is taking off big time, having just signed 2
non exclusive licensing deals with Silvercurve
Management in New York and Blue Pie Media in
Australia Franco has just agreed a management deal
to release 4 singles over the next 12 months with
Animal Farm in London.
New live dates have just been confirmed at RockNess
Festival, Dentdale Music + beer festival and
Bakewell acoustic festival
After many years with International One the band did
a self release which was played by Zane Lowe on
Radio 1, Steve Lamacq on Radio 2 and was Clint
Boon's single of the week on XFM.
This led to the band signing a record deal with a
label under UNIVERSAL. Franco was asked personally
by Desmond Tutu to write a song celebrating the life
of Nelson Mandella, the archbishop gave it as a gift
to Mr Mandella for his 90th birthday. Unfortunately
the label went under in the recession sparking
Franco's solo career.
