PizzaExpress Live (Holborn)

Success Express continues to introduce exciting new Independent artists to new audiences at PizzaExpress Live. We are thrilled to present a wonderful trio of artists, performing acoustically, and headlined by Swedish soul pop singer-songwriter Karin Fransson and band. 

"Her music, melodic, melancholic and soulful, powerfully evokes her true emotions that have driven her to produce an outstanding debut album. Andy Mitchell, the current front man of the ‘Yardbirds’ says "Karin has an amazing voice… Top class."

Karin Fransson

Swedish born and raised Karin Fransson, moved to London to delve deeper into the singer songwriter life. Her soulful, upbeat and on occasionally mellow songs reflect her journey through life’s many transitions and tribulations. Song writing is her passion and forte, which has been backed up by both her live and recording work as a session musician for the likes of Omar and the Temptations amongst others. Her dreams were realised when she played on stage at Ronnie Scott’s where she felt right at home, as much as on the UK and European festival scene where her voice and guitar shine bright.  This highly regarded artist brings her full band to Pizza Express Live for a signature headline show.
