from Making Sound with Jann Klose Hosted by Jann Klose / Derek Frank

EPISODE 109: After years of touring the world with artists such as Gwen Stefani, Shania Twain, Shakira, Air Supply, and others, veteran LA bass player Derek Frank decided it was time to take a slight detour from the life of a “hired gun” musician and focus on his own instrumental quintet. Described as “Seventies-Inspired Funky Instrumental Jams With Fewer Bass Solos Than You Would Expect”, Derek and his band blend funk, blues, soul, jazz, southern rock, and seventies soundtrack music into a genre all their own. 2020 saw the release of “Eleven Years Later”, Derek’s first solo album since his 2009 debut “Let the Games Begin…”, and his newest album Origin Story was released on March 25th, 2024 on all download and streaming platforms. The 2-disc vinyl version (with bonus live tracks) will be available sometime in May 2024. derekfrank.com Contact us: makingsoundpodcast.com Follow on Instagram: @makingsoundpodcast Follow on Threads: @jannklose Join our Facebook Group Please support the show with a donation, thank you for listening!
