Fran Pitre & Class Act
Professional show band presents classics and originals, getting everyone on the dance floor.
Fran Pitre started her career in her youth, as she honored the role of Eliza Dolittle in the Broadway musical My Fair Lady. She continued to perform through high school and college while getting a degree in graphic design. She also performed around Washington, DC as a backup and lead vocalist with the band The Haigs. Family commitments (THREE sets of twins!), and a freelance graphic design business, diverted her musical career until Pitre put together a band of her own, in Jacksonville, which she calls Fran Pitre & Class Act.
With two books about parenting twins to her credit, Pitre then created three albums of original music; the second album, Follow Your Dreams, received a Josie Music Awards nomination for 2022 Pop Album of the Year. With a third album in the works, the cut of Pitre's song "My Cool Drink of Water" received the Josie Music Awards nomination for 2022 Pop Single of the Year.
Pitre has found her love onstage playing her own penned arrangements, as well as rock, jazz, pop, country, and blues as Class Act covers arrangements by Susan Tedeschi, Etta James, The Allman Brothers, and the Beatles.
