"Leaving,' the sophomore album from Fran, fnds the band at a crossroads of loss and possibility, forged through Maria Jacobsen's preoccupation with the climate crisis as well as newfound contemplation of the intertwined nature of theology and religion

There's an overarching spirit of home that overlays these heavy themes, however, and both gently intentional and evocative, her deliberate musings convey a type of music that feels tactile to the touch. On 'Leaving' Jacobson's sharply wry anecdotes feel astutely impactful, with effortless melodic guitar and string 
arrangements creating a heartrending backdrop that showcases Fran as another force to watch in the constantly evolving Chicago music scene. Angular, precise and flled with melodic entanglement, this spirited culmination of modern indie folk songwriting, strings and electric guitars highlight the potential release and joy of Jacobsen's apt storytelling."
