Internationally acclaimed singer and voice teacher. Frankie began running workshops in 1975 and these along with the voice leader trainings she began with her partner Darien Pritchard in 1988 formed the early foundations for the NVN. In 2017 she was made president of the NVN and in 2018 awarded the Gold Badge from the English Folk Dance and Song Society. Frankie’s major influences have been the variety of vocal styles that originate from cultures where people sing as naturally as they speak, and also the Natural Voice teachers from the theatre world.
