FRANK FROM BLUE VELVET

“SNAKEPREACHER”

Release date: 24th August 2022

(Property Of The Lost Records)

The gnarly Hastings alt-country group give us a second glimpse into their soon to be released debut album. Taking a swipe at the hollow talk of political leaders, “Snakepreacher” is a harmonica and banjo fueled, rabble rousing track. Drenched in the sweat of back street bars and pubs where Frank F.B.V. learnt their craft.

Loosely based on the practice rooted in the Appalachia of serpent handling as demonstration of faith. The lyric makes comparisons between a snake preacher who inherits his fathers church and certain business and political leaders enjoying their easy ride through their inherited wealth. Lacking any sense of purpose or achievement the Snakepreacher abuses his status and lives a life bankrupt of morality and despite publicly repenting with crocodile tears just continues through the car crash existence of his own making.

The debut album “Frank From Blue Velvet” is out 26th October 2022.
