The Funtime Frankies have quickly established a firm reputation as one of the best party bands in the UK since they began performing in May 2005.They are a young, good-looking male 4 piece live band performing chart hits from the 60's to the present day, providing an unforgettable show for their audiences. They all sing and perform 4-part harmony and are highly skilled instrumentalists. They are based in Lancashire in the UK but are prepared to travel worldwide for gigs.
They have a full 5kW PA (Logic System 1296 rig), full lighting rig with motorised units and effects and smoke machine, meaning that they can cater for most functions and venues. However if extra equipment is needed this can be easily organised.
