Biography

English singer and songwriter, currently the frontman and lead vocalist in the band You Me at Six. Formed in 2004, the band achieved success in 2008 with the release of their debut album, Take Off Your Colours. Their second album Hold Me Down (2010) debuted at number 5 in the UK, while third album Sinners Never Sleep (2011) peaked at number 3, was certified Gold, and spawned the band's fifth top 50 single "Loverboy".

Franceschi is of Corsican-French (paternal) and Scottish and Welsh (maternal) descent. He lived in Cyprus in his early childhood, but later moved to Twickenham to live with his grandmother. At the age of 9, he moved back to Weybridge, Surrey. He attended Heathside School until he was 16, and then moved to Esher College, where he studied A-Levels in politics, history and film studies. He now lives in north London.

In 2016, Josh Franceschi began to criticise the way that tickets are re-sold for extortionate prices as there were consequences for both musicians and fans. He, along with a variety of other musicians came together under the Fan Fair Alliance to tackle the touts. Franceschi spoke against the rising issue along with Ian McAndrew and Annabella Coldrick in Parliament; many MP's backed the argument, agreeing that something must be done.
