Frank Fois

Frank Fois is a blues singer, guitarist and songwriter, he started playing guitar at 3 years old, immediately he showed a great passion for the music, especially for the blues. During 2001 he tooks part in a big concert organized by UNICEF in which he played some original songs, then in 2002 he played in differents shows as main vocalist in the theaters of Sassari.

Frank does his first recordings in the studio at 6 years old. Soon after, he has participated in several competitions in Italy and finished as the winner. During his life, he met some big artists of the blues music, like Eric Clapton, Warren Haynes, Derek Trucks, B.B. King, Buddy Guy, Robert Cray, Gregg Allman, Johnny Winter, Joe Bonamassa, Mick Taylor, and many others.

In 2003 Frank started attending the Music Conservatory, studying classical guitar. Very soon he started playing in the theaters of Sardinia, and throughout Italy. He played in one of the largest theatres of Italy Teatro Verdi at 14 years old. During the 2013 concerts tour he performed in Australia, and in different European states, Germany, France, England, Italy.

Frank knows how to use his considerable skills to serve the music rather than just grandstand. Great playing is everywhere but the arrangement is kept fairly lean... as true blues music should be. His guitar skills are up there with the best, in the same rarified air as Jeff Beck, Derek Trucks and Eric Clapton. Frank Fois' take on the blues however, is never exceedingly crisp and pop-precise, as he sticks to the raw guttural emotion with great vocals and guitar phrasings.
