Vinny Franco

Vinny Franco and his band are an 8-piece R&B/Soul group from the Twin Cities. Their music is groovy, fun, passionate, and meaningful. Their live shows get people dancing, smiling, crying, laughing, and falling in love.

Vinny Franco has worked closely with local Twin Cities producer JFaye to create many of his records. He takes inspiration from legendary R&B, funk, and soul artists like Al Green, Stevie Wonder, Earth Wind and Fire, Aretha Franklin, and Prince. Some of his modern inspiration comes from acts like Anderson Paak., Saint Paul and the Broken Bones, Allen Stone, and Bruno Mars.
