St. Francis & the Wolf is a dynamic 5-piece band that serves up guitar driven Blues Rock & Soul with elements of Latin Folk/Rock, R&B, and 60’s Pop. 

 

Formed in 2016 in San Francisco by frontman Alberto Martinez, the band made its official debut as the winners of a local battle of the bands. Since then, SFNTW has cultivated their reputation among audiences and contemporaries as well oiled machine of catchy hooks, driving rhythms and radiant harmonies. 

 

St. Francis & the Wolf released their self-titled debut album in June of 2020 to glowing reviews thanks to crowd-pleasing original songs like “Clementine” “Oh, the Timing” and “Supertoy”. 

 

After founding  members Miguel Martinez (lead guitar) and Jaime Garcia (bass) exited the band, Alberto and Ash Khokha (drums) reformed the lineup with Josh Mosley (saxophone), Alex Handler (bass) and Jon Morataya (lead guitar). Shortly after the band’s reformation, Josh Mosley took a step back from performing to focus on his medical career and Lina Garcia-Schmidt (keyboards) joined the group to complete the St. Francis & the Wolf signature sound. 

 

You can catch St. Francis & the Wolf performing at a variety of venues and festivals, delighting audiences of all ages and backgrounds with the great tunes and fun vibes.
