Fawn Fritzen

Today I want to introduce you to my friend, Fawn Fritzen.

FFritzenWhat Fawn IS and what Fawn HAS are very much the same…a treasure!

024I mean to say that she has treasures in her family, she is my treasured friend, and she, herself, is also a treasure.

Fawn is also a musician. She sings Jazz & Blues in English, French, German and Chinese.

Starbucks-Quote…and here’s a bonus for you! I’ll show you how you can get a FREE .mp3 of one of her recorded songs at the end of this post!

I could listen to Fawn sing all day long and never tire.

1013077_570933942950108_1587370530_nShe’d play a beautiful etude or two while waiting for the girls to get dressed and come upstairs for breakfast.

Sometimes she’d sing softly, under her breath. Like she didn’t want to wake anybody up.

Photo-ShootAfter a little bit, the girls would come clattering up the stairs and a new kind of music would begin. The getting-ready-for-school kind of music. Once everybody is out the door, Fawn’s job as a working musician begins.

In the summer you can find her singing and acting in the Frantic Follies Vaudeville Review Show where she is the leading lady.

Bedroom_VoiceFrom her website: Thanks Fawn Fritzen for your debut album, ‘Bedroom Voice’, the best CD I own. Your voice enlightens the whole world and unlocks our hidden feelings. Another additional treat is the insightful and beautifully written liner. For those that appreciate crossed jazz music with folk, rock, country and even blues, you would appreciate this CD.
— Bruce Wallace

And on a side note, one really cool thing about having a friend who is releasing her first CD is that you get your opinion asked about things like the album title and the cover art. Just sayin’…I loved that! I loved getting that peek into the process.

Hollywood-Radiant1And now for the freebie…
