Fran “So Long”

Posted on:

Fran has released a new single called "So Long" via Fire Talk Records. This is the first new single from the Maria Jacobson fronted group since the release of their 2019 album A Private Picture.

Jacobson had this to say about the new single; "So Long is about the gulfs that form in relationships: feeling distant emotionally and then trying to correct it with physical distance. It was written in a time of a lot of solo camping. The video is inspired by my favorite escape, Real Housewives."

Fran will be performing at Thee Best Western Block Party on October 1st, and at Golden Dagger on November 16th.
