Derek frank biography

Escaping the Great Deception
Thankfully, the book comes off much better. Unlike with the movie, there's no bad acting, no obvious CGI backdrops, and no fake-looking beards to contend with. The only major issue that remains is the sense (right or wrong) that author Derek Frank suffers from delusions of grandeur, in that he sees it as his God-given mission to "complete the Reformation," presumably by releasing the near-unwatchable LET THE LIONS ROAR. Personally, I wish creators of Christian content would stop claiming their work is directly inspired by God, since it sounds self-important and often forestalls honest, constructive criticism.

Derek Frank Band
Derek Frank has built a career as a touring bass player, traveling the world with such icons as Shania Twain, Gwen Stefani, Air Supply, and many others. In the downtime on these gigs, he discovered a private music world inspired by the cultural debris of his 1970s childhood.
Years ago, the bassist-composer began to write the kind of music he used to hear on 1970s TV and movies. Today, Derek is leaning into the solo artist side of his career with his third solo album, Origin Story, released March 25, 2024 on all streaming platforms, CD, and vinyl. Origin Story boasts Derek’s strongest instrumental jazz-funk compositions to date.
“I used to love the music in Dirty Harry movies, and in the Wonder Woman and The Incredible Hulk television series,” the LA-based artist says. “When I finally found my voice as a solo artist, I decided to make that kind of music along with jazz and funk as the main influences.”
