Frankie Oliver - Here I Am

Frankie Oliver has lived the life. In fact, he's lived several lives. A London taxi driver who carries his beloved Telecaster in the front of his black cab at all times, he is a singer, songwriter and recording artist who has worked with some of the greats. His new album, 'Here I Am' is a collection of authentically crafted, bluesy soul songs written straight from the heart by a man on the move.As a teenager he began singing at local clubs and social functions where he was spotted and quickly signed to Island Records by Trevor Wyatt. Whisked off to Jamaica, he recorded his debut album, 'Looking For The Twist', with the legendary rhythm section and production team of Sly and Robbie.Frankie won lasting kudos with songs including the fondly-remembered 'Give Her What She Wants' and 'She Lied To Me'. But the pop-star lifestyle and major-label politics did not agree with him. Now Frankie is back with stunning new album which is turning heads and gaining plays over BBC Radio and TV.
