Any artist is welcome to send us ONE track via freshonthenet.co.uk anytime between Monday lunchtime and Thursday morning - and all our moderators, including Tom Robinson, will listen to every track*. This is our full inbox from the week beginning Mon 31st October: from mid-day on Friday you'll be able to hear our shortlist and pick your favourites on this week's Listening Post which will appear at freshonthenet.co.uk/batch217

*Note: we don't listen again to tunes we've already heard, and automatically block artists who send more than one track a week (our moderators can manage to work their way through 150+ tunes overnight, but 300+ would be impossible!)

She's Leaving With Someone Else

“Fran Wyburn has a unique, engaging voice and lyrical tales to share, a rising Yorkshire talent”
 BBC Introducing West Yorkshire
 
The singer-songwriter’s newly released EP 'Little Moments' is a beautiful collection of unique songs- characterized by rich harmonies and subtle instrumentation, providing a dreamy backdrop to her poetic lyrics. Inspired by the 1960’s folk revival, her style is current, original and spirited. Fran has joined harmonious forces with Rosie Evans a beautiful singer, George Birkett a mesmorising folk guitarist and singer and Sam Dutton Taylor a very talented bass player, the four of them make up the wonderful Fran Wyburn and the Indigos. They have been gigging across the UK charming audiences with their unique blend of folk, quirky story telling songs and warm personalities. In a short space of time they have already proved they are defintely one to watch out for in 2015. 
 
After working in London for several years Fran set off around the globe with her guitar on her back, returning a songwriter. Further honing her skills at the prestigious Leeds College of Music, she worked with Ivor Novello Award winning Iain Archer (Jake Bugg, Gabrielle Aplin, Snow Patrol).  The EP has also been mastered by the accomplished producer Toby Davies (Gentlemans Dub Club, Ranking Records).
 
Since launching her first EP in December Fran has already received national radio play (Mark Forest Show) and has an exciting schedule of gigs and festivals booked for 2015, including Spotlight on Female Composers at Leeds prestigious White Cloth Gallery, Tea House Theatre, London and Festival on the Moor, North Yorkshire and the Northern Green Gathering.
