Best of Both Worlds
She’s just 22 years old, but Francesca Blanchard has seen plenty of the world. Born in France, the singer-songwriter moved to Vermont at age 11, and her passport boasts stamps from India, Egypt, Kenya, South Korea, Thailand, Guatemala and Mauritania. International travel exposed Blanchard to cultural experiences that would later inform her bilingual songwriting — a mix of French and English that bears the mark of one wise beyond her years. Pouring her heart into delicate melodies written for the acoustic guitar, the rising talent launched a music career with her 2011 EP Songs on an Ovation and continues to blossom.
