FRANK O’HARE, singer/songwriter from Glasgow, Scotland, UK.
DEBUT ALBUM ‘Heal’ 
Frank O’Hare played guitar in Glasgow-based 80s bands ONE O’CLOCK GANG, SKROO and H20.  Much water has passed under the bridge since then.
Since his semi-retirement from the 80s new romantic music scene he has continued to write songs and play in various pub rock bands (to keep a hand in) while concentrating on raising his 4 children and getting a ‘real’ job.  
For 20 years Frank has been a psychological counsellor, a life coach and an addiction specialist, helping troubled souls to change their destructive habits, to heal themselves and to ultimately transform their lives.  “An endlessly fascinating occupation”, says Frank.
With his kids all grown up and fleeing the nest, now is the time for Frank to get his self-penned songs out to the world.  An album of new material, recorded in Glasgow’s Carlton Studios, with producer Danny Mitchell (who wrote Midge Ure’s No.1 single ‘If I Was’), is completed and ready for promotion.
The digital release of Frank’s album is available through the usual platforms of iTunes, Amazon and Spotify etc – it is called ‘The Boy with the Golden Dream’; while the physical CD version of the album is called ‘Heal’.  
The record has a rock n roll as well as a singer-songwriter feel to it (with the odd ballad and country track thrown in).  The music has been described by some as sounding like The Waterboys meets Elvis Costello.  Lyrically there are themes such as facing up to loss, the power of true friendship, the mid-life crisis and erm… car worship (boys ‘n’ their toys). 
Inspired by Frank’s own life experiences and the fascinating stories of the numerous people he has counselled over the years, the new album HEAL is a commentary on the wonders of life and peoples’ never-ending search for peace and contentment. 
Rehearsals are currently underway in preparation for Frank O’Hare Band gigs to promote the album and give audiences a rocking good time…..so watch this space.  The first gig to showcase the songs was at Bathgate Music Festival on 3rd September ’16.
