Frank McDonnell is a drummer, singer, songwriter, and screenwriter from Newtown Square, Pennsylvania with over 50 years of experience in the music business. Frank was the drummer of Wellington Arrangement in the 1970s, was signed to Decca Records, and toured with the likes of The Monkees and Bruce Springsteen. Decades later, he's still at it, releasing music under the moniker Supa Philly and entering the world of screenwriting. I've known Frank my whole life, and his story is very interesting!

One of my favorite bands of all time is KISS. They've also been in comic books, animation, video games, toys, etc. I've always wondered why they never had their own proper animated series or movies? Here are some ideas I'd have for what that could be...

One of my earliest guests was St Petersburg, FL-based guitarist Marko Bojkovic. Marko recently joined the metal band Made from Stars, and is currently in the studio recording their next release. He happened to be near my house, so I figured why not have him stop by and catch up on what he's been doing!
