About Don Francisco
Don Francisco was born on February 28, 1946, in Louisville, Kentucky, the son of Clyde T. Francisco, a Christian seminary professor and Bible scholar. He initially pursued a career in secular music before rededicating his life to God. His musical style is characterized by acoustic instrumentation and narrative-driven ballads that interpret biblical events.
Francisco has worked as an independent artist, releasing over 20 albums. His catalog includes the albums Forgiven, Brother of the Son, Got to Tell Somebody, and The Traveler, as well as songs such as “He’s Alive,” “I Don’t Care Where You’ve Been Sleeping,” “Give Your Heart a Home,” and “Beautiful To Me.” At the 1980 GMA Dove Awards, he received the award for Songwriter of the Year, and “He’s Alive” was honored as Song of the Year.
His songwriting has consistently focused on themes of unconditional love, salvation, and grace. Francisco resides in Colorado with his wife, Wendy, who is also a recording artist. In 2009, he was denied entry to the United Kingdom after failing to obtain the required religious worker visa for a scheduled performance.
