To Fly by Fran Clark

Before compiling this first album, I had never thought to put together a full album of songs. I’d written songs for various projects, but To Fly was my first opportunity at a more cohesive collection of material. Around the time of writing these songs, I had been singing a lot and exploring musical styles that best suited my voice. Jazz music was one style that had a lasting impression on my music going forward and I began to gig jazz standards with local jazz musicians. The songs in To Fly were influenced by my experimenting with jazz.
The lyrics, not following the jazz standard, come from a combination of real life stories, not necessarily all mine, and following my imagination.

A London born singer-songwriter influenced by Dianne Reeves, Anita Baker and Stevie Wonder.
