Hey all.

We were recently nominated for “Outstanding Americana Act” for the 2007 Boston Music Awards and they’ve sent us a link of a past performance we did at Fox 25 in Boston to promote the BMA’s. You can check out the video by visiting this link:

Just scroll down their page and look for us!

Also, check out the new garage band demo, “Put Me In a Hole”, we posted on the Frankspace a couple days ago.

Hey all,

For those of you that don’t know, Frank Smith’s going to be featured on Fearless Music Television in New York City.

After we play some songs for them, we’re going to do an interview. They sent us an e-mail asking us to ask YOU what questions you might have for us.

You can send your questions to questions@fearlessmusictv.

This should be very interesting…
Can’t wait to see everyone at the shows!

Best!
Frank Smith

Yes, it’s true.
