About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
Frank Atom (aka. the Frank Atom Nuclear Option, the Frank Atom Labour Dispute, the Frank Atom Dance Lesson, etc...) low-fi avant-folk art pop made of syth pads acoustic guitars, dinky drum machines and rotund mutant electric guitar loops. and lyrics.
Frank Atom is currently working on another Toronto Arts Councils funded project - a 1 hour politically based concept piece (tentatively titled "We Are the Electric Company"), as well as writing music for 2 new electro/dance projects: Dr. Unk (w/James Pertusi) and Guantanamotown.
Frank Atom's main brain just came back from a 6 show stint as the one-man orchestra pit and a/v geek for the rock opera "Dr. Wei-Wei and the Fake Brain" in NYC (myspace.com/fakebrain).
