Franks Wild Years

Tom Waits

The music draws from dark cabaret, polka, and vaudeville to build a surreal world. It feels both nostalgic and deeply unsettling as the story unfolds.

This project represents a turn toward experimental, character-based songwriting. The intentional grit in the audio gives the impression of a record that has seen better days.
