Recent reviews for Frank Palangi

One-man act Frank Palangi
Upstate, NY Solo artist Frank Palangi, whose music ranges from acoustic rock to heavier flavors.

Palangi previously released the 2006 album Falling Too.

Working as a solo artist who performs all his own instrumentation has been a blessing for him, Palangi said. He suffers from severe allergies and asthma and his ability to write and perform all his own music and to record it in his own home studio has greatly lessened the effects of what could otherwise have been considerable hardships for a musician.

As a writer, he says he focuses on creating songs people will want to hear over and over again. And nostalgia, he believes, is also an important facet of songwriting. Music should be entertainment. The more you listen, the more you want, Palangi said. It's all about revisiting songs and remembering when you heard them in a certain time of your life almost like a photo album.

Palangi likes to perform as frequently as possible. He plays heavily in the area around Upstate, NY, the city he calls home. I like to play at the local coffee houses and some restaurants, he says, noting that he prefers to avoid bars where people are often too drunk to really appreciate the music they're hearing.

His constant playing (and constant writing and recording, too) are signs of his passion for music something he believes is required for someone to be truly accomplished as a musical artist. If you want to play music, it must be a passion and a drive. Practice is the key to getting better.
