Live at The Bitter End / Remembering Donny Hathaway

Bio FRANK McCOMB

 

FRANK McCOMB is a divine soul man who speaks with the native tongue of soul, jazz, blues and pop. His virtuoso vocal and piano work has made him not only an indispensable and highly sought after session musician, but a favorite on the soul, jazz and R&B scenes.

Frank has worked with many of the entertainment industry’s giants including but not limited to: Prince, Branford Marsalis, George Duke, Patrice Rushen, Gerald Levert, The Rude Boys, Phil Perry, Tommy Davidson, Fred Hammond, John P. Kee, Chaka Khan, Songwriting duo Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff, D.J. Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince (Will Smith), Frankie Beverly and Maze, Teena Marie, Lalah Hathaway, Terri Lynn Carrington, Phyllis Hyman, Philip Bailey, Teddy Pendergrass and more!  

Signed to Motown’s short-lived jazz label “MoJazz” from 1992 until 1994. Frank was able to lend his vocal chops to the Buckshot LeFonque (Featuring Branford Marsalis) hit song “Another Day”. It was this featured performance that would lead to a recording contract with Columbia Records in 1998 where Frank would record and release his debut CD “Love Stories” in 2000. In 2003, Frank would go on to sign with Malibu Sessions for the release of his 2nd CD entitled “The Truth Vol.1”.

After a bit of soul searching, F rank decided to release his works independently and in 2004 he released his 3rd CD, “Straight From The Vault”, an entirely self-written, self-produced and self-recorded CD that would win him the “SoulTracks Readers Choice Award” for “Best Album of the Year” and in 2005 earn him a spotlight with Jill Scott in Oprah Winfrey’s highly respected “O Magazine” as one of Ms. Scott's favorite CD's.

“Straight From The Vault” was followed by eleven album releases between 2006 and 2013 under Frank’s own Boobeescoot Music label, “ Live at The Bitter End/Remembering Donny Hathaway” being his latest offering. Frank was also named one of the 27 greatest keyboard players of all time by “Music Radar”.

Frank McComb Soul/Jazz vocalist and pianist, recorded Live at NYC’s famous The Bitter End club where he plays tribute to the great Donny Hathaway. Features "Love Love Love", “A Song For You”, “Someday We’ll All Be Free” and others.

Franks renditions are interpreted and embellished with the singers own phrasings, but never diverting too far from the style of the great originator. 7 of the tracks are Hathaway originals, however, 'We'll Carry Your Name On' is a Frank McComb original.

Live at the Bitter End is just that kind of album, a loving tribute made by the right artist at the right location. This new LP is Highly Recommended.
