Frances was nervous working with Greg Kurstin

Singer Frances said she found it nerve-wracking going into the studio with Adele's producer Greg Kurstin.

The 24-year-old rising star - whose real name is Sophie Frances Cooke - jumped straight into working the renowned producer shortly after he spent time with Adele, 28, getting her chart-topping single "Hello" together, reported Contactmusic.

"He did it (Adele's song) not long after I did that session with him. I wrote the chorus to the song before the session because I thought, 'Oh my god this is Greg Kurstin!' I felt like I had to go in with an idea and one that I think is OK and that he would like.
 

"So when I first went in for the session he said, 'What do you want to do, what would you like to write?' And I said well I have a little idea. I tried to be really casual about it, but I had tried. I sat down and played him the chorus and he was like, 'Oh my god I love it.' That was a relief. But it turned out alright," she said.
