Felecia Ford’s voice has been heard in over 157 countries worldwide, and she has performed extensively singing live across the United States and abroad throughout her lifetime.
After having recorded and toured supporting six full-length albums with her rock band, Hundred Year Flood, Felecia released her first solo album in 2014 titled “Kissing Booth.” She is presently recording her 2nd solo album titled “You’re The One,” at Frogville Studios in Santa Fe.
Felecia will be featuring on this album, many of her favorite musicians from this area, as well as percussionist John Bush and keyboardist Matt Hubbard both band members with Edie Brickell and The New Bohemians. Matt, who won a Grammy for engineering and producing Willie Nelson’s 1999 hit album, “Rainbow Connection,” will be helping Felecia with co-production on her upcoming album. Felecia plans to take some lucky musicians out of the state and abroad to tour in support of “You’re The One” in 2020.
