Frankie Archer
Frankie Archer has exploded onto the electrofolk scene with music that transcends stereotypes using a combination of manipulated samples, synths, drum tracks and earthy Northumbrian fiddle and voice to capture her audience. Her aim? To shake up genres and traditions, challenge perspectives and call for a fairer future. Following on from a run of headline shows in the spring, and performances at Glastonbury and Deer Shed festivals, Frankie comes to the Eastgate Theatre this autumn to coincide with the release of her second EP, Lovely Joan.
