When singer-songwriter Francesca Milazzo started her music career, she was leaving everything behind; she dropped out of college and abandoned a potential ROTC scholarship to begin writing and recording. Her sultry brand of blue-eyed soul draws inspiration from classic R&B and blues music, and finds its home comfortably in New York City, despite Southern musical influences. Her single “Little Boy” (streaming below) is just one example of this cool but classic folksy style. Catch her performing at the Rockwood Music Hall at Communion NYC on Stage 1 on September 5th. – Lilly Milman
