Employment History & Experience

I started my career on a semi pro basis at the tender age of 39 with a band local to my area called On the Rocks, playing working men's clubs.
When On the Rocks hit the rocks!! i Then spent 5 years as frontman for a showband called Breeez playing clubs and private functions around the Midlands. It was my time with Breeez that allowed me to develop his "Elvis" and "Cliff" characters, not to be confused with tributes, and give him invaluable experience working with many varied audiences, the highlight of which was playing at the Wootton "Walk in the Park" festival in 2006.
It was during 2006 that I decided to attempt some solo work, and as the year progressed it was obvious that there was going to be a conflict of interest with Breeez as solo dates started to come in for 2007, so with much regret and after five great years I left the band by mutual consent.
2008 proved to be a successful year with over 80 bookings around the Midlands and south east, and I also appeared in a TV commercial for a well known shopping channel.
In 2009 I teamed up with James Reynolds and developed the stage show "When Frankie Met Robbie" now working with Marcus Reynolds and his Big Band as well as a self contained theatre production. Having played a number of theatres the show is already hailed a huge success, and more dates are planned.
2010 has seen the birth of "Swings Sinatra" a show dedicated to the memory and music of the great man.
