Ad Frank Tribute Tonight

Tonight at the Middle East a whole slew of us are paying tribute to one of my favorite people, songwriters, and friends, Ad Frank. He is turning a year older at midnight.

Ad Frank and I met about 3 years ago at a Valentines Day show and exchanged CD's. He played a solo set, I could tell his songs were good but couldn't tell why. A few months later he got picked to play in the WBCN Rumble with his full band 'The Fast Easy Women', and I went to go check it out. To this day, it is one of the most engaging and magnetic shows I have ever seen...and Ad doesn't even think it was that good. Ad didn't win the Rumble, he didn't even make it to the next round, but it doesn't matter because that night opened so many things for me and everyone knows he was totally robbed...as usual.
Over the next year I had the privilege of being asked to sing on his soon to be released record 'Ad Frank is the World's Best Ex-Boyfriend'. I sang. The song was fucking beautiful. They asked me to sing at their CD Release party, and then somehow coerced me into being a full time Fast Easy Woman. Being in this band has been one of the best things I have ever done, and has brought me so much happiness and love. It is ever evolving, sometimes time consuming, and my liver has probably suffered irreparable damage...but I wouldn't give it up for the world.

So, if you are around tonight please come by the Middle East and listen to Ad Frank's fucking awesome songs sung by a million different people. I'm going on last tonight, Ad Frank is doing a solo set first, so there will be plenty of things to enjoy all night long.
