Frankie grew up with music all around her, whether it was her mothers influence of Ricki Lee Jones and Joe Cocker, her fathers influence of Pavarotti and Sharon Sweet or her older brothers of Nirvana and Alice in Chains. And sometimes her two sisters influence of Gloria Estefan and the Spice Girls…. She spent her years listening to her disc man and writing constantly, recording for the first time in her friends bedroom in Elwood, Melbourne. After years of recording and playing in bands, distraction, a lot of heartbreak and moving states she is heading into the studio to record her EP. Entitled "Heartbreak Hell", it is a raw tale of all the girly staples. Love, relationships, the ultimate heartbreak, wanderlust and sophrosyne.
