Frank is recording his forthcoming album in Sweden with some of the finest local jazz musicians.

This project aims to instil a sense of pride in our ancestral heritage, promoting unity in our diverse cultural societies and bringing about awareness of the fact that there is a common thread that links us all, even though we speak different languages, have different cultural practices, but through music, we are one.

The musical concept is an amalgamation of high-pulsating rhythms from Western, Eastern and Southern African, spiced with harmonic, melodic and Jazz improvisation nuances.
