I write autobiographically, although I apply liberal amounts of poetic license.
From Michael Franks
I started touring a little bit in 1973 in support of a record I made for an independent label. In 1975, when I signed with Warner Bros., where I remained happily ensconced for the next 24 years, my touring activity increased considerably.
I've always enjoyed the enthusiasm of the best studio musicians and, over the years, have collected so many inspired contributions from them.
People often ask me how I developed my vocal sound, and the answer usually disappoints them: 'It's just the way I sound when I sing.'
