Loitered Lens: Frankie Ballard

Heart-pumpin’ high energy country. Photos of Frankie Ballard at Islington Assembly Rooms

Part David Cassidy, part Marty McFly (when he plays at the prom) and a pinch of young Elvis or Ricky Nelson…

Frankie Ballard is a cool hybrid cat for sure and he sure as hell delivers the music. It was more of a rock and roll show than a country gig: high energy and heart-pumping.

– Trebuchet‘s man in Islington captures the flavour of Nashville deep in London’s leafy northwest.
