Francesca Fuentes is a singer / songwriter & author from New Jersey. She has a degree in English and Creative Writing from Monmouth University and was known on campus for her work with The Blue Hawk Records Group, who featured her on two compilation CD’s: After Midnight & Phases. Her first music video for her song “Rock W Me,” was awarded Best Film at the 2019 Lovesick Film Festival in Jersey City. Two years later, her first album "Diary Of Dreams," was backed up onto a hard drive after the ending of her romantic relationship and long time collaboration with her music producer. Since finishing studio work on her second album, she has begun penning the third. Francesca loves to explore variations of pop and rock. Her lyrics often include themes of romance, breakups, mental health, artist angst & even her faith. During the day, she teaches creative writing & works as a music marketing assistant. She hopes her story will help other women and artists who have struggled with their artistic identities. Her new music video, “I Just Wanna Be Your Lover Again,” is currently being featured on MTV Spankin’ New.
“Francesca Fuentes’s] artistic temperament is such that she pours out her heart and soul into her music like early Joni Mitchell. But she’s funkier.”
-The Jersey Sound
“Francesca’s songs inquisitively beg the question of being fit for the stages of Broadway with her affection of tit-for-tat flirtations.”
-Jason Kim of M. News New Jersey
