Francesca's Musical Journey

Francesca LaRosa began her musical journey at the age of nine, playing at Mass with her father. By the end of high school, she had recorded and composed two albums of songs for the Holy Liturgy. Francesca pursued music education at Ball State University, excelling in vocal competitions and volunteering at her parish Newman Center, deepening her call to serve God through music.

After graduation, Francesca became the music director at her home parish, focusing on youth involvement and composing music for liturgies. She launched the instrumental piano channel 'Keys of Peace,' featured on Hallow, the leading Catholic prayer app. With her husband David, a music producer and videographer, she created a YouTube channel to share her word-for-word Psalm settings in English and Spanish. Approved by the USCCB and ICEL, these Psalms quickly gained international recognition and are used worldwide. Her work has been featured on Sirius XM’s 'The Catholic Channel,' including 'The Busted Halo Show' and Gus Lloyd’s 'Seize the Day' show.

With over 7 million YouTube views, Francesca celebrates having several published songs with OCP and collaborations with renowned Catholic artists like Sarah Hart and Steve Angrisano. She has performed at major Catholic events globally, including NCYC, The National Eucharistic Congress, and NPM. Traveling with David, Francesca leads cantor workshops, retreats, and concerts, inspiring and uplifting others through her dedicated music ministry. Her deep faith, energetic spirit, and beautiful heart continue to captivate audiences around the world.
