Judy Roberson interviews South African singer/songwriter Carla Franco on the SA & Indie Music Zone.

Carla is a 26 year old singer/songwriter originally hailing from Bloemfontein, and currently residing in Johannesburg. Her love for music started at a young age with her first piano lesson at the age of 7. Carla was born with a hearing impairment, suffers from 20- 30% hearing loss and has been wearing hearing aids for many years. Never one to falter in the face of adversity, Carla has never allowed this to be a defining factor in her life. Against recommendations, she attended a normal school and never requested any special treatment.
