Frank Sultana Blues Band & The Marvellous Hearts

Frank Sultana is an Australian modern day bluesman. Dripping with pre WW2 mojo, dark, dirty guitar tones and a voice that has the grit and soul of the characters and places he writes and sings about. 

Frank has been writing, recording and performing his original blues songs in Australia since his 2011 debut 'Blues from the Lost Motel' and now has 4 EPS and 8 albums under his belt, including 3 releases in the last 2 years. In January 2023, among a field of 150 artists from around the world, Frank competed in and won the solo/duo section of the International Blues Challenge in Memphis Tennessee. He is only the third Australian to do so in the events 38 year history. While in Memphis, he also recorded his new album at the iconic Sun Studios where so many greats before him have recorded The resulting album is his new release 'The Ghosts of Sun'. 

"The Marvellous Hearts sound like what happens when you give crate-digging music fanatics instruments and tell them to go make a record. There’s snippets of every record they’ve ever heard swirling around in their sound. One minute you hear The Beatles, then it’s Bob Dylan on rotation. Hell, then I hear a fragment that reminds me of one particular Paul Kelly song, and another faint echo that had me thinking Goanna. And yet out of this melting pot comes something distinct and un-pigeonholeable. I like them. Chances are you will too.”
