Martin Frawley

About

Like most of us, Martin Frawley is busy trying to work himself out. He lives alongside the long shadow of his late dad, musician and songwriter Maurice Frawley, a cultural icon of the Australian underground and collaborator with Paul Kelly, Tex Perkins and Mick Thomas. Most of Martin’s 20s were spent writing and playing songs in locally beloved Melbourne band Twerps – a collection of pals on the forefront of the city’s jangle pop renaissance. His new solo album The Wannabe is a personal, cheeky and, at times, self-deprecating collection of songs unpacking the reality of finding his way as an adult without his dad around, and ultimately falling back in love with life, music and someone new.
