JUNO AWARD WINNING FOLK SINGER STOPS IN FREDERICTON THIS MAY

“David Francey’s clear, simple songs speak volumes to his followers. David is known as one of Canada’s finest tunesmiths and a champion of the ‘Everyman’, admired for his less is more approach to writing. It’s amazing how he manages to address the deep stuff with such spare ingredients.” –The Edmonton Journal

David Francey makes a return to Fredericton for his first stop in the capital city in over 10 years on May 1st 2024, for a much anticipated performance at The Charlotte Street Arts Centre.

Francey is a folk singer in the truest form. Born in Scotland, but arriving in Canada at the age of 12, Francey’s life was very much shaped by the experiences of living, travelling and eventually working in the adopted country he now called his home. His style, although on the surface coming off as simple and minimal, packs a great deal of depth.

A traveller, an observer, and a man of the people, Francey’s songs are crafted through experience and his natural gift for storytelling. In his younger years, Francey worked farms, rail yards and the wilds of Canada’s north as a journeyman laborer, all the while collecting the experiences and characters that make up the backbone of his extensive body of work.
