Francesca Fuentes On The Move

Francesca Fuentes

West Long Branch singer-songwriter-author Francesca Fuentes will be performing and partnering with HIP Video Promo (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jl6MZM_Nuh0) on its 25th anniversary to spread some good holiday cheer this Sunday, Nov. 16, at a free 2:00 afternoon food drive in Milltown at Revilla Grooves & Gear on North Main Street. Fans are encouraged to bring non-perishable food donations to support local families in need. Jake Thistle and Sam Tunkel will also perform.

The following Friday, Nov. 21, she’ll be hosting a similar free food drive at the Asbury Book Cooperative on Cookman Avenue at 7:00 p.m. where she will host, perform and introduce the artist known as Songbird from nearby Brick Township plus Chiara Maria. Again, cans of food are appreciated. “Community comes together in so many ways, and music is a powerful way to give back,” she says. “I’m excited to host this event, celebrate the season, and help families have a brighter Thanksgiving.”

Fuentes will also appear next month on the 13th “Live At The Nail” in Ardmore Pennsylvania, and on the 20th at the 16th Annual Elephant Talk Indie Music Awards in Atlantic City, 4:00 in the afternoon at the Tennessee Avenue Beer Hall.
