Ann Frances is a Chicago-based singer-songwriter. Ann started writing songs on the piano while in college at Harvard University and picked up the guitar shortly thereafter.

In her soon-to-be-released, double album, “No One Wants You (You’ve Slept With Too Many Men)”, Ann plumbs the depths of her own sexuality and her sexual relationships with men. The result of a song journal kept over 10 years, this musical tour de force is by turns joyful, defiant, funny, dark and poignant.

“No One Wants You (You’ve Slept With Too Many Men)” is a pop-rock tapestry that draws from punk, country, bluegrass, African, folk and R&B. The album touches on love, infatuation, friendship, the exuberance of bucking sexual mores, the double-standard regarding woman who love sex, the frustration of being related to as a sex object, the legacy of sexual abuse –  including how men have helped heal her – and her own serial infidelity.

“No One Wants You (You’ve Slept With Too Many Men)” brought Ann to the realization that, while sometimes a literal pain in the ass, her lovers have ultimately been an ethereal gift.

Ann can’t help but think that reading Yiddish folk tales – with their economy, poetry and humor –  has made her a better lyricist.
