  • Dusty Frank - Vocals/Guitar/Harmonica

Description

Dusty is a high energy solo/acoustic guitar/harmonica act specializing in Baby Boomer parties and events. He holds true to his sacred roots of Classic Oldies Rock & Roll, Motown, Classic Country, and American Folk. These immortal sounds are not only what the Baby Boomer generation grew up with, but they're also the songs they helped create.

Dusty's style and song list is unique and eclectic with unforgetable songs ranging from such Classic Rock greats as The Who, Badfinger, REO Speedwagen, The Pretenders, The Cars, Bob Seger, Neil Young and Joe Cocker; to 50's & 60's early Rock & Roll such as The Drifters, Johnny Rivers and Roy Orbison; to Soft Rock greats such as James Taylor, The Eagles and The Beatles; to upbeat Classic Country essentials like Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and Marshall Tucker; to timeless Folk Classics such as Arlo Guthrie, Peter, Paul & Mary and Bob Dylan - and just about everything in between! And of of course, Dusty offers up some of his own award winning, upbeat original songs too.

Dusty Received the 2010 Collective Works Songwriting Award in "Song Of The Year" For His Full Circle Album!

****PLEASE NOTE**** Dusty is a 100% "live music" act. He uses no pre-recorded backing tracks, sequencer, loop pedal, drum machine, laptop, or any other type of artificial audio gadgetry. Dusty's own vocals, guitar and harmonica make for a very full "live" music performance. Afterall, it's supposed to be "live" music, right? : )

Feedback

  • Professional, courteous and top notch talent as always, this was the second year we hired Dusty for our annual corporate party. That says a lot in itself. If you are 60's - 80's oldies hits aficionados like we are, Dusty is your ticket. With his guitar and harmonica he plays all those forgotten oldies that you'll surely remember. Thanks Dusty we'll see you again next year! Jerry and Marie -- Jerry S, Tampa, FL, 2/6/2010
  • Not only is Dusty incredibly talented, he is also very prompt, accommodating, professional, and reliable. He prepared for a special song request that turned out to be beautiful - it made our wedding day unforgettable. Everyone who was in attendance was impressed by him and I look forward to any opportunity I have in the future to work together. -- Sarah D, Palm Harbor, FL, 12/18/2009
  • Dusty was great! He arrived early, set up quickly and started exactly on time. He was a gentleman every step of the way from the very first email contact to the moment he said goodnight and left our home. He was the life of our party too, especially his last set when we all sang along with all the treasured rock and roll oldies. Almost all of my guests commented on how much they enjoyed his music. Some of my guests like Country music so Dusty played a very good Country music tribute set of Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson songs. None of us wanted the party to end. I would definitely recommend Dusty. We will use him again for sure. Thank you Dusty! -- Cheryl L, Riverview, FL, 12/18/2009
  • We loved Dusty! He exceeded every expectation we had in every category. He was professional, on time, polite, funny and charming. And what a performance! We had about 60 people at our party and I think all of them commented to me on how well they liked Dusty's music. He has a very diverse songlist which contains so many classic oldies. Everyone was really into it during his last set and we had a sing a long. HIGHLY recommended! Rock on Dusty! Love ya >>> Caren -- Caren D, Saint Petersburg, FL, 7/24/2009
  • Dusty provided a great evening of entertainment for our guests at my wife,s 50th birthday party. We all listened and danced and sang along with him. The song list was many of our favorites from all styles of music. He seemed to have as good a time as the rest of us and that played into our fun. I would hire him again with no hesitation. Paul Staniford -- Paul S, Valrico, FL, 7/25/2009
  • On time and professional. Dusty obviously is passionate about music and it shows in his performance. We received several compliments from our guests regarding Dusty's talent and great personality! I would highly recommend him. Penelope -- Penelope L, Trinity, FL, 7/4/2009
  • Dusty was terrific. He especially plays and sings a lot of great rock songs, and our crowd -- ranging from twentysomethings to seniors --loved them all. The sound quality was perfect. If you like the songs on his playlist, you should hire him, as he does a nice job overall while adding distinctive personalized touches. We had about 70 people at our party, and Dusty made it a blast! -- Chuck M, Palm Harbor, FL, 6/6/2009
  • Dusty was awesome! Professional every step of the way. Passionate and high energy, he exceeded all our expectations for a performer and definitely put the life in our party! Many of our guests raved about his performance too. If you're looking for a performer to put some life in your party, I highly recommend Dusty. We will definitely use Dusty again. Sam DiNuzzo -- Sam D, Saint Petersburg, FL, 10/10/2009
  • We had over 40 people show up for my wifes birthday celebration and were very amazed with the performance that Dusty gave and also with his proffessionalism. I would with out doubt, recommend him for any party that is in need of a performer with great sound and song list diversity. Also, his ability to play harmonica adds a very nice touch to his performance. Thank You Sincerely, D.W.Guidry -- David W, Tampa, FL, 6/4/2009
  • We hired Dusty to play at my husband's company birthday party. Simply put, Dusty Rocks! Professional, courteous and accomodating. Great sound with professional equipment and a sweet harmonica! To sum up his performance I would think it to be impossible to listen to Dusty play and not smile (at least a little) from the classic heyday memories that flow with his unique repertoire. We will definitely use him again for our next party for sure. Highly recommended for anybody's party event! -- Jerry S, Tampa, FL, 3/27/2009
