Francis Hope plays live at Russells Books

Frances Hope is a singer-songwriter, old soul, natural performer, poet, multi-instrumentalist and alternative/indie-folk rock artist from Victoria, BC. Her music is inspired by early Joni Mitchell, Don McLean, Gordon Lightfoot, Taylor Swift, Lana Del Ray, Florence and the Machine, Birdy, and Brandi Carlile. She is an advocate for mental health, as her own struggles led her to begin songwriting to process and heal her own emotional wounds. Little did she know, that her words would touch others and shine a light on universal themes of vulnerability, mental health and healing have become one of her raisons d'être. She is an international performing artist and is eager for her music to reach as many countries as possible and hopes for her music to take her all over the world.
