Teen recording artist Ariel Franz releases second original of 2024

PEORIA, ARIZONA - Teen recording artist Ariel Franz recently released her second original since signing with Clarksville Creative Sound in Tennessee. Ariel was signed after being discovered at the Josie Music Awards in Nashville last year. The new song, "Somebody," was dedicated to the founder of IPOP (International Presentation of Performers), Ron Patterson who helped her get started in singing, acting and modeling when she was 6.

Ariel. 13, spent some time earlier this year with Curt Ryle, CCS, recording several originals now in production for a new album. This isn't her first album but her first album since being signed by CCS. 

"My favorite part of working with Curt Ryle is his knowledge of singing and recording as he does this himself. He strives to bring out the best in me and he's v ery patient and smart," Ariel said. "I admire him for all his work. He is a role model. We work very well together."
 

Ariel has performed since she was 5 at a variety of festivals and through competitions with IPOP and National American Miss, even winning awards. 

About her new songs, Ariel wants listeners "to connect with the story by being able to relate, feel the song." Ariel has one previous album recorded and several original singles, all available for listening at her official website, www.arielfranz.com, on YouTube and Spotify.

As part of her summer plans Ariel would like to learn piano or guitar.
