Freddy & Francine have produced three full-length albums and two EPs, with a new Nashville-recorded EP on the way. The six-song “Moonless Night,” co-produced by Dan Knobler (Lake Street Dive, Rodney Crowell) finds Freddy & Francine — which has often used full bands on its recordings — still produced but more intimately portrayed, a sound closer to the duo’s live performances. 

But don’t call it folk music. It’s too energetic. 

Think The Head and the Heart meets Ingrid Michaelson meets Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats . 

“Pop music gets a bad rap, but it comes from the word ‘popular.’ I’d love to be popular,” Bianca Caruso of F&F said. “I never discriminate against a song because it’s popular if it stays in your head … every Beatles song is a pop song.” 

But mostly, Freddy & Francine sounds like Freddy & Francine. Give them a listen and hear for yourself.
