-The Atlas Artist Spotlight turns the high beams on dedicated artists who are pointed towards success. Collectively these artists have toured with multi-platinum recording artists; won numerous awards; their music is featured in film & TV projects; their records included MTV catalogues and many other successes. FRAN'S SPOTLIGHT-CLICK -We had a nomination for "Record of the Year" at Radio Six International with the BBC's Tony Currie. Thanks to all of you for the votes and the support that put us on the "Record of the Year" final charts for fourth time and for listening to the broadcast of the final chart. -This Fall (2007),we have a song being released nationwide to college radio through Plantetary Groups. -Fran at Northwest Radio CLICK .. BIO Powerful, mind engraining, effortlessly engaging, gutsy, provocative, poignant and diverse, are some of the words and phrases that critics have used to describe Fran Gray’s music. From the N.E.A (National Endowment for the Arts) funded and endorsed CD, Singular Intent, to her award winning follow-up, Eclectic Encounter, the music of this West Coast artist has elicited attention and interest world-wide. Her first CD, Singular Intent, emphasized lyrical substance through dark musical passages in a purely pop setting and drew comparisons from the press with Alanis Morissette, Sheryl Crow and the Lilith Fair movement. Her follow-up CD, Eclectic Encounter, had Gray behind the engineering console, which led to her assembling her own studio. There she would delve into scores of “middle of the night” recording sessions amassed from sweat, blood, love and drive. The result was a CD that won magazine and radio awards as well as recognition that continues to reverberate with a resounding response. Look for Fran’s new CD, Contemplating the Sun, early in 2007. Hear my music on these great stations. Save the Wild Tigers "Take it on faith, this is fine music from a musician who is honest, talented and quietly assured about her work." The Oregonian-Portland "Fran is one of the best singers in the Northwest Male or female. She's a wonderful guitar player too. When she's on stage, she's in command." KBOO Radio-Portland "Portland's finest, Fran Gray, recently released her stunning second album, "Eclectic Encounter". It's a knock-out set from a firm VBM M&P fav and you can read all about it at VBM magazine" VBM Magazine-Brighton, England "Eclectic Encounter is tremendous! It's a fantastic follow up to Singultar Intent....beautiful vocals, tasteful musicianship....A Superb piece of work."
