could our hearts be more on our sleeves

 
 

After 6 years of silence,

Frances Cone returns with “If I’m Lucky,” out 11.13.2026. Leaving Nashville behind in 2022, they moved to the coast of Maine, where the days slowed and the noise quieted. It was there that they met Evan Smith, saxophonist for Bleachers, and the song began to take shape. Recorded in Nashville with Josh Kaler and further brought to life in Maine under Smith’s hand, “If I’m Lucky” carries the imprint of both places. It’s a homecoming of sorts: returning to Nashville last year, Frances Cone is back with clarity and intention.
