Greetings,

I'm Frank Villarreal and this is my website.

I created this website to expose my music. (Actually my drinking buddy Troy came up with the idea for this site.) Thank you Troy.

I'm a Mexican/American Hillbillie, a child of a no longer existing mining town somewhere in the foothills of the White Mountains in Eastern Arizona. (I do miss occasional snowfall)

In 2006 I started attending Open Mic night at Mama Java's located at the southeast corner of 36th St. & Indian School in Phoenix, Az. Because of Mama Javas I have been encouraged to write my own songs.

Prior to Mama Javas I was strictly a cover act. Meaning I only did other people's songs. Mainly a mix of Folk, Rock,Country and Blues.

Due to encouragement (or pressure)from other musicans, I recorded seven solo acoustic songs at Perfect Timing Entertainment in Phoenix. Perhaps at some point I will have a CD Out.

Thank you Michael Mattingly for recording me.

At this point I want to thank everyone who has been supportive and encouraging:

My bud Mark Hardison a fellow songwriter who I met in NYC at an audition.

Anameike for encouraging me to record my songs.

Barry Brents for believing in me and promoting me.

Lisa and her wonderful staff at Mama Java's.

Joe,Teri, Cuam Him, and everyone else who seems to enjoy my songs. Thank you Dave (DJ Doom) and Ray for Photo contribution and audio expertise.

I'll be adding more great music, so please check back.
