Prank Sinatra

About Me

Droll, melancholy, punkish and clever, Prank Sinatra is the Pinoy lo-fi cause celebre of the 21st century.Iman Leonardo is Prank Sinatra. A one man band with revolving sessionists. His music is proof that the lo-fi revolution can still yield rough jewels and produce songs whose heart is as big as their ambition is modest: to move you.Formerly the bassist of Pinoy goth primogenitors Dominion, Iman Leonardo is now a veteran of the music scene. He's been gigging, brawling and beer wrestling since the mid-1990s. He is an avid do-it-yourselfer who wanted to satisfy his long-standing musical urge, financial constraints be damned.Watch the video for the song "Droning On" [from The "Peel" Sessions album]Watch the video for the song "Yesthurling Egg" [from Footlong Players album]
