“Francelle Maria is the new voice coming on the Canadian country scene out of Moncton (Dieppe), New-Brunswick. The debut album is filled with strong material including two songs she had a hand in co-writing (with Larry Wayne Clark), confirmed her creative versatility. The album's lead single , Heartbreak Waiting to Happen, generated some decent airplay, and the follow-up release What I Meant to Say (one of her original offerings) is showing signs of being a sizeable national chart hit. Listen also for winners in soulful love song I Need You to Kiss Me Right Now featuring an effective whispery vocal delivery by Francelle Maria.”
