   About Big Frank & The Healers


BIG FRANK & THE HEALERS are a traditional electric blues band playing chiefly in the Chicago and Delta blues styles, and touching on the swampy sounds of Louisiana and Texas. The band has been cited in publications as far afield as Austria’s ‘Blues Life Journal’. Local favorites, they have appeared in nightclubs and concerts including the headline spot at the 2004 Lake George Blues Festival. They were featured artists at The Glens Falls Blues Festival, and the Blues 2000+4 Festival. For several years they’ve played to enthusiastic concert crowds, including performances at Rockefeller Center’s City Sounds, Staten Island’s Back-to-the-Beach and Twilight series, Snug Harbor Cultural Center, and opening for Creedence Clearwater Revisited. The band’s founder and leader “BIG FRANK” Mirra’s credits include The Mohair Sam Band, and The Street Hawks, an acoustic group that focuses on early roots music.

Great job on Eddie Taylor's "Big Town Playboy", and some great Muddy inspired slide on "I Can't Stop Lovin'" too.
