| Out on 23rd June through Xtra Mile Recordings, ‘Reasons Not To Be An Idiot’ is a foot-tappingly catchy and joyous ol’sing-a-long that is uplifting, inspiring and more importantly rocks face. A definite live favourite, the song was welcomed like a long lost friend by the heaving crowds on his recent sold out UK tour. At the heavier, rockier end of the folk spectrum, ‘Reasons…’ illustrates Frank’s incredible song-writing ability and mass cross-over appeal. It’s a crossover appeal further illustrated by the fact that not only will Frank be supporting pals The Holloways on their tour of the nation’s universities throughout May but this summer Frank will be playing a truck load of music festivals including 2 sets at this year’s Glastonbury and must be the only artist confirmed for both the Cambridge Folk Festival and the Lock-Up Stage at Reading and Leeds. Frank and his band have developed into a formidable live force performing passionate and intense shows. All forthcoming gigs are listed below. Genre-defiant and winning over fans and followers all over the world – Frank’s gradual approach to superstardom is gathering speed!
