Artist Details

The Franklin Electric is part of our Hudson Music Fest exchange with the Hudson Music Fest in Canada

Montreal-based indie folk collective The Franklin Electric turned heads last year, claiming first prize in a Nashville songwriting competition with the infectious song, “Old Piano”. The group then banded together to lay down a debut album and “This is How I Let You Down” is the result.

Working with the ADISQ-winning mixing engineer Rob Heaney for an almost-live approach to the recordings, lead vocalist/piano/trumpeter Jon Matte’s stellar songwriting guides the ten tracks with a confident brass section and strong harmonies there to add melodic support.

The Franklin Electric’s debut album “This is how I let you down” available June 16th, 2013.
