Frank Cougar is a truly international musician: born in Russia in the mid-60s, Frank moved to Paris while still a child; only later in life did he become resident in Birmingham and sow the seeds of his musical career. This career followed in the footsteps of his father who was a singer himself. Having sung for various projects while in London (including Chrome Dog Bone, Sons of Samuel Volcano and recording an album of soundtracks under the pseudonym Andy Green), Frank moved back to Birmingham's Chelmsley Wood two years ago in order to bless the people of Birmingham with his unique talent. Drawing on influences as disparate as William Burroughs, Jim Morrison, Frank Sinatra, and The Young Gods, Mr Cougar has already fashioned a name for himself on the underground circuit including gigs at club DiaboliquE, the Supersonic festival and the legendary Electric Cinema, as well as playing live for the Sonic Arts Network (on Resonance FM) and appearing on Brum net-radio, Mouth of God. The forthcoming release on 3 Pin Recordings will feature an archive of long-lost recordings from Sons of Samuel Volcano as well as a selection of tracks from his Soundtracks LP. Not to be missed, this is a time capsule which was too far ahead of its time to be understand when originally recorded.
