“Music Heals The Soul” — A Benefit For Frankie Redding
Frankie Redding, aka The Funk Master, has been performing as a professional musician since he was 15-years-old. He started at Portland’s Original Cotton Club when he was in High School, sitting in on B-3 organ for the dynamic Billy Larkin. Since that time, Frankie has performed with National Acts like Tyrone Davis and Etta James & Terry Evans. Frankie has also played with many regional acts such as the Staple Brothers and the Norman Sylvester Band to name just a couple.
Since health issues stemming from diabetes has kept him from performing, Frankie has struggled financially.
