About the show

Elsie Franklin sings and plays acoustic country-blues, ragtime and jazz on her trusty National resonator. She is a rising talent on the UK blues scene, playing all over the country. Learning from her father (renowned blues guitarist, Adam Franklin) and good friend Steve James, Elsie is often praised for her authentic, yet unique take on early blues and jazz, drawing influence from legendary female blues artists such as Memphis Minnie and Bessie Smith...

??There?s no doubting that the engaging Elsie Franklin is on an upward trajectory.? Russ Cottee, Blues in Britain

?Memphis Minnie, Jo Ann Kelly, now Elsie Franklin?? Dave Kelly
