Press
“Brian Franke’s brand of upbeat, melodic pop gets the quality production it deserves on his latest album, “Six Blocks Down.” The soaring, briskly-paced rocker “I’m Just Sayin’” conjures fond memories of Barenaked Ladies while “You Got All You Want (Girl)” is a pretty ballad that showcases Franke’s vocal range and ability to convey genuine emotion. Throughout the record, Franke’s crisp, assured guitar playing stands out. The entire album represents a strong effort from a talented local artist.”
