A full band from one guitar
Franco builds every song one layer at a time.
It starts with an acoustic guitar and a voice. Then comes percussion tapped right off the guitar body, followed by rhythm parts, bass lines, and effects, all looped live.
He takes songs people already know and reshapes them to fit acoustic guitar and the way he plays. The sets are relaxed and unhurried, made for rooms where people want to settle in and actually listen. Plays solo or as an acoustic duo with Thad Helderman, depending on the gig. Based in Greensboro and playing across the Triad.
Pull up a chair
Solo live looping
Every song is built live, one layer at a time. Guitar, percussion tapped from the guitar body, rhythm, and bass, all looped live, so one player fills the room.
Songs you know, reworked
Familiar songs taken apart and rebuilt for acoustic guitar and live loops. You'll know every song, but you've never heard it quite like this.
