Bio:
A truly contemporary artist, Franky Wah’s music epitomises the exhilarating power of club culture. Born and raised in Yorkshire, in the north of England, Franky has an intuitive understanding of emotion, dance floor energy and catchy hooks culminating in a sound that resonates with both the underground and commercial ends of the dance music spectrum. A series of chart-topping releases have catapulted him into the public eye, where he’s picked up a dedicated fanbase, as well as backing from his peers and idols. This includes a glittering endorsement from Pete Tong who tipped Franky as one of his Future Stars for 2020 and regular spins on Radio 1 from Annie Mac, Danny Howard and Mistajam. F
As a youngster Franky caught the music bug through west coast hip hop, later discovering artists like Roger Sanchez and Paul Johnson, and falling head over heels for dance music. By his late teens he was spending all his spare time learning how to make music on a ‘crappy’ laptop in his garden shed. From there he progressed to the famous Music Factory in Rotherham before finally setting up his own studio in Doncaster, where he has been cooking up his recent hits.
