Elsie Franklin
Venue:
Elsie Franklin
Elsie Franklin is a musician playing and singing old-time style American folk, blues and ragtime on her trusty National resonator.
Elsie is often praised for her authentic, yet unique take on early blues and jazz, drawing influence from legendary female blues artists such as Memphis Minnie and Bessie Smith. Elsie has formed her own all-female blues trio based in London with the highly-acclaimed Francesca Nnoka Shaw (double-bass) and Carmen Ruiz Vicente (drums).
Dave Kelly says “Elsie Franklin is the most natural blues singer I’ve heard in years, her guitar playing is pretty damn good too, uncluttered and tasteful, she really understands the genre – she’s the whole package”
