Bristol-based singer-songwriter Francesca Luker is poised to illuminate the music scene once again with her forthcoming single, 'Sunshine,' set to release on September 1st. With a lyrical narrative deeply rooted in personal growth and self- discovery, echoing her own experiences, the song's genesis lies in her struggles to find belonging and self-worth during her formative years.

The inspiration for 'Sunshine' draws from a blend of musical influences that shaped Luker's creative path. Originating from her affinity for hip-hop tracks featuring piano-based beats, the song weaves intricate jazz chords and syncopated rhythms into its fabric. This foundation birthed the captivating looped piano riff in the first verse, an idea that mirrors Luker's intention to juxtapose laid-back, soulful segments with vibrant, funky elements.

Vocally showcasing her multiple octave ranges, Francesca's honest emotion and self-assurance makes 'Sunshine' a thrilling adventure that fuses pop, funk, and soul into one seamless whole. The track gets underway with a prelude propelled by a piano that envelops the ears alongside an all-powerful soulful vocal from Francesca. A compelling aural concoction is also produced by the medley of shuffled percussion beats, a gripping bass line, and a guitar performance that glides over the mix in the style of Nile Rodgers.

Francesca Luker's creative vision and vocal delivery resemble a dazzling light illuminating the night sky. She immediately resonates with those who have navigated the maze of self- acceptance and become stronger, finding one's tribe and embracing authenticity. Also, her talent has caught the attention of prominent figures, including the likes of will.i.am, and she continues to impress after performing at notable venues such as The Troubadour and having amassed over 130,000 streams for her 'Take Me Down' EP.

So, ready for 'Sunshine'? It will be available to stream on September 1st!
