Sandrine François is a French singer, born December 1980 in Paris. Whitney Houston, Tracy Chapman and Aretha Franklin were her early inspirations. She was discovered singing in a pub and invited to sing on the television show of Mireille Dumas. This appearance led to a record contract, and to her working with producer-writer-arranger Erick Benzi (Jean-Jacques Goldman, Céline Dion). In 2002 François was invited by French television to represent her country in the Eurovision Song Contest. Rick Allison, Marie-Florence Gros and Patrick Bruel wrote a song for her called "Il faut du temps." She reached fifth position.
Also in 2002, she released her first album 'Et si le monde...' and is so far her only album.
Sandrine François also sang some records for the French soap 'Sous Le Soleil'. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
