Description

?Have you ever been there at the start of something new? Something exciting? Something that crackles with possibilities?? Gavin McNamara (Bristol 24/7) witnessed the power of FRANKIE ARCHER?s music. She is fresh on the scene and shaking up genres and traditions, sharing the lesser told sides of stories, championing women, challenging perspectives and calling for a fairer future, all to a unique mix of synths, manipulated samples, drum tracks and earthy fiddle and voice.

Frankie Archer?s imaginative and bold mash of electro alt-trad shows her Northumbrian fiddle roots, her deep love of electronic music and her immersion in soulful folk songs from the North East of England and around the world. Mark Radcliffe (BBC Radio 2) described her music as ?fascinating and intoxicating?.

Frankie's unique, fresh sound has pricked up the ears of fans and press, earning wonderful reviews from Tradfolk and Fresh on the Net. Her music has been played on BBC Radio 2, 3 and 6music. Over the Border was chosen by Fatea for their Showcase Session and Close the Coalhouse Door was included on the BBC Introducing Mixtape.
