It was the love of acoustic guitar along with the music of Will Ackerman that inspired Frank to begin a music career and later create his three CD's. When he began exploring alternate tunings on the guitar along with using altered capos, he found the sound he had always been looking for. With the added expertise of producer Will Ackerman, engineer Corin Nelsen and many other talented musical artists, his newest recording "Gardens of Hope" became a reality.
Frank has received accolades in numerous publications for playing his music in hospital settings as well as for his other professional performances. Frank currently volunteers his music at Naples Community Hospital and Physicians Regional Hospital in Naples Florida. His music was heard daily for over two years playing for outpatient infusion services where people come in for chemotherapy.

He constantly develops increasing enthusiasm for his performances which emphasizes his talent as an artist on the rise. His style of music is inspirational and will lead you on an inner journey of calmness from which you will never be the same.
