Here it is, Blue Skies & Sunny Days, a collection of loose & breezy songs that will hopefully make you and your kiddos feel good, even on your cloudy days. And I'm so thrilled that one of my artist heroes, Lisa Congdon, did the album artwork for it. Available Now on iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, Pandora, & all streaming sites!

We are so excited and honored to be playing two shows at Lincoln Center! If you are in the NYC area please come sing with us! xoxoxo f

Hey Friends, I wrote this song after a day of feeling so upset by what's happening in our country. I was also thinking about how children across the country are processing the news right now because I know so many of them are seeing and hearing it. With my own kids, I've struggled to find words to explain how such hatred, racism, bigotry and violence can live and grow inside another human being (who was also once an innocent child). "Beacons of Light" is a response and if you have a child, I hope maybe you'll play it for them. 100% of downloads for this song will be donated to the Southern Poverty Law Center. Huge thanks to Dean Jones for collaborating with me on this one. Sending love and light to you all!

Frances' new album - EXPLORER OF THE WORLD - is coming out April 1 but you can pre-order it now right here!

Produced by Dean Jones + Dave Winer, Explorer of the World is a shimmering sonic journey through the everyday and a reminder of all the unexpected adventures that can happen when you keep your head up and let your own curiosity lead the way.

““It really feels as though Frances England has captured the world in one musical place. It is laid back with a sense of urgency. It is funk horns chilled out to an indie groove. It is both the beginning and end of an adventure. It is the noise of a foreign city, and it is the grass of your backyard. And it all works together.””

"As parents we are stewards of the next generation, we protect our kids childhood. So when the dog bites and the bee stings, simply remember that Frances England's got your back, at least musically speaking." Thanks for the super sweet review, Eat The Marshmallow 🌈

I'm always so inspired by the creative and artful ways @weelicious frames preparing healthy food for kiddos. Here's yet another example - so happy that "Good Day" from Blue Skies & Sunny Days is the soundtrack to this one! ❤️🌈

Friends, today we are releasing HOLD TIGHT, SHINE BRIGHT, a compilation of songs for children in response to the devastating family separations at the border. I'm so honored to be part of this effort that is donating 100% of sales to RAICES Texas to help with the legal defense of children who were forcibly separated from their families. The heartache and trauma these children and families have endured is truly unimaginable. Please buy this album (link in the bio) and share it with your friends and family. ❤️ #familiesbelongtogether

I wanted to share this little video I made with some of my favorite lemurs and monkeys. From "Into The Wild" on Blue Skies & Sunny Days - out this Friday! 🌲🐒 ((with @leboguitar + dean jones ))

My new album for kids and families comes out next week! Writing these songs was an interesting exercise for me because although I wanted to make something light & upbeat, I often felt the opposite this past year. But I kind of willed myself to write sunny, uplifting songs for this because that's what I want to put out into the world right now. Especially for children. And for mothers. I hope this new album becomes a loose, breezy audio escape for you and your beautiful little ones. Good day, friends...let's keep 'em coming 🌈 Blue Skies & Sunny Days 🎈August 17
