Biography

Frank attended Quincy College (now Quincy University) where he earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts in theater.[1] It was there that he developed an interest in songwriting.[1] Following college, he traveled Europe and formed the short-lived band Deliverance in Hamburg, Germany.[2][3] After the disbanding of Deliverance, he relocated to Los Angeles where he began working in the Aerospace and Defense industry while still writing songs in his spare time.[2] He retired from the Aerospace industry and began songwriting full-time.[1]

In 2000, Frank won first place for Best Country song in the Unisong International Song Contest.[4] In 2007 he began working his own material, and in 2009 he released his first full-length album entitled The Road So Far on the independent label, Apple Farm Music.[2]
