ABOUT LIZ

Liz Frencham’s music is a rare alchemy—where folk, swing, and Americana intertwine with the deep tones of her double bass and a voice that lays bare both ache and hope. A storyteller at heart, she weaves songs of resilience, trauma recovery, and self-acceptance through a neurodivergent lens, offering raw intimacy and unwavering authenticity. A celebrated festival performer and sought-after collaborator, Liz’s work has earned recognition as a finalist for Best Folk Album at the Music Victoria Awards and the Troubadour Foundation’s 2018 Artist of the Year.

Whether in the hush of a solo performance or the vibrant pulse of a collaboration, her music lingers—truthful, tender, and resolute.

ABOUT

“Frencham has a voice with all the appeal, emotional honesty and clarity of someone like Shawn Colvin or Mary Chapin Carpenter. Yes, really, she is that good.”

Bruce Elder, (Sydney Morning Herald)
"Liz Frencham is one of the more welcome presences at any musical event. Liz is a fine bassist, an expressive singer and a skilled writer of songs. As a performer she is generous, always "on", always fully engaged. Her musical vocabulary and comfort zone are conspicuously wide."

Doug Spencer, producer, 'The Planet', ABC Radio National
“Splendid and always tasteful bass playing, the warm-smiling Liz Frencham has a mesmerising voice, at times reminiscent of Billie Holiday. “

Ian McLean, Canberra City News
"Frencham's lovely voice can be heard in all its glory on her outstanding songs”

Tony Hillier, Rhythms Magazine
“Frencham …. is a superb singer as well as a solid & melodic bass player. She has a rich distinctive voice that carries as much emotion as the song requires”

Graham McDonald, Canberra Times
"Liz Frencham is an ornament to music. The complete package: a superb song-writer, sings like an angel, and when Liz is on stage with one of her double-basses, it’s like two parts of the one whole."

RiotACT online
“Liz Frencham is a honey voiced bassist with a generous style……delivering songs with a sensitivity and lion-hearted courage that has made her one of the most sought-after performers in Australia. Her assured touch on the double bass brings real warmth and solidity"

Fred Smith, (Singer/Songwriter)
