Half our genes are exactly the same.
Since we’re all the same species, we also share some genetic material with the Hanson brothers. We, however, sin.

This will be our second show at Rockwood, the best small music venue I know. Our set is at 4:00 PM, which I affectionately call the Teatime Slot. The show is free.
The show starts at 8, we play at 9, and the cover is $7. Ages 21+. Glasslands is in Brooklyn, on 289 Kent Ave, between South 1st and South 2nd streets.
The Tendencies play after us; they are astoundingly fun.
Showcase for 194 Recordings, featuring Katie Buchannan at 10:00, The Brothers Frank at 11:00 (that’s us!), and Lacrymosa at midnight. Free show, all ages, awesome.
Sidewalk Cafe is on 94 Avenue A in NYC.
Rockwood is one of my favorite places in the city to see shows.
4:00 PM is an unusual time for rock music, but don’t let that stop you. We’ll make it work. Free, 45 minute set, ages 21+, starting at 4:00 PM sharp.
Hey! Give me my computer back, Chris!

That’s better. I should never have given him the password to this website. Uh, anyway, as Chris’ title informs you in its own special way, the Brothers Frank will soon be playing our last show of the year. It’s this Friday, 12/18, at Sullivan Hall, 8:00pm. Ten bucks gets you in if you’re 18 or over. ID’s required, but any form is accepted.
If your semester’s over, come celebrate! If your semester’s not over, come drink in the corner and be sad! If you don’t go to school, rock on! Last Frank Brothers show of 2009? Psshh—we’re gonna play like it’s our last show of 2010.
I don’t know what that means.

The schedule for tonight’s show at Webster Hall has changed, and we’re now playing at 5:30 sharp. Kate Eastman, alas, has a theatrical engagement until six o’ clock, which means she cannot grace you with her harmonies tonight.
I’ve placed a call to the New York Philharmonic to see whether they can fill in, but with so little notice I’m not hopeful. Look for a show tonight from just me, little brother, and Zach.
Gallatone Records is throwing a party, and we’re part of the entertainment.
Genesis Be, Shinobi Ninka, Natti Vogel, and Analogue Transit are also on the bill, which means it’s going to be a hell of a party indeed. Show starts at 6:00 sharp, and we play at precisely 7:10.
The Studio @ Webster Hall has an address: 125 East 11th St, Manhattan. It’s open to anyone 19 or older. Yes, nineteen. Why 19? Makes no sense to me.
UPDATE:
The show is now 18+. Apparently the 19+ thing didn’t make sense to someone else, too.

We’ll be playing a few songs with my friends ippazzi at Rockwood Music Hall tomorrow night. 11:59 PM. I don’t know which songs, precisely, we’ll be playing, or how many, but I do know that Rockwood is a great place to see music.
If you’re awake at 11:59 and in New York, you ought to be at Rockwood.
The shows keep coming. Come catch us Friday, 11/13 at the Sidewalk Cafe, at 94 Avenue A, where A meets 6th St. We play at 11:59 PM, for free, and all ages are welcome.
So we’ve got a showcase in this year’s CMJ Music Marathon. Dana Billings, who you may know as the drummer from my band New Neighbors, will be joining us on drums. Yeah, you read right. REAL DRUMS.
If you’ve caught one of our first two shows, or are planning to catch our third, you know we’ve been threatening to fire our drum machine some day. That day is soon. Fourth show, CMJ show, no drum machine.
The Brothers Frank play at 7:15 PM.
NYLE follows at 8:00.
Shinobi Ninja take over right after that.
Jesus Christ this is going to be fun. Ages 18+. Crash Mansion is at 199 Bowery, where Bowery crosses Delancey St.
UPDATE 10/19: Due to a scheduling error on my part, Dana will unfortunately not be playing this show. I told him Friday; the show is actually Saturday, and Saturday he’s got a gig with Andrew and Noah VanNorstrand, which, if you’re near Trumansburg, you absolutely should not miss.
Eric Read will be joining us on drums in Dana’s stead.
