50 Years of Frank
1966 was the year Frank Zappa released his iconic double album „Freak Out“. It was only the beginning of his impact on music. 50 years later his son Dweezil Zappa and his band are laser focused on presenting „50 Years of Frank“ to audiences around the world for their 2016 Tour. With the monumental task of performing signature compositions spanning Frank Zappa's entire career, Dweezil has developed a new way to present this year's live show. The concerts will feature a specialized medley approach inserted throughout the setlist. Layers of Mothers Of Invention material will represent the early years, with special attention focused on „Freak Out“. The musical transitions are designed to effortlessly guide the audience through the depth and variety within Frank Zappa's musical universe, allowing for a „live chronological overview“ of a broader stretch of Zappa's career. Fan favorites, deep cuts and high quality musicianship will all come together for an epic night of music. (Pressetext)
