Frank, Devin
The Vanishing Blues
Mixing psych sounds with good, old-fashioned, straight-on pop, Frank captures the listener with his Donovan-esque magic.
Instruments play a big role - and not just guitar, bass, and drums. Bongos, autoharp, tambourine, and flute all have
their big moments, and as you listen you are carried away on the wings of its ethereal psych-folk sensibilities. As you
drink in Frank's special blend of musical wonder, you feel his influences: from Kevin Ayers and Mayo Thomson, to Scott
Walker, Bob Dylan, and Cass McCombs/solo Paul McCartney. Frank, late of The Poison Control Center, Mantis Pincers,
FLiight, Jowlz, and Devin Frank's Vanishing Blues Band, wrote these songs with the intent of a solo release. He
describes them as part-60's folkrock, part early singer-songwriter, part 90's lo-fi (or mid-fi) indie rock. As a member
of The Poison Control Center, he toured/played shows with Pavement, Apples in Stereo, The Mountain Goats, Of Montreal,
Elf Power, Cursive, and Calvin Johnson, among others.
