FRANK COSENTINO
Bio//
“The first time I heard a guitar the world for me went from black & white to Technicolor.....”
Guitar has been in Frank Cosentino’s life since the age of five when everything changed after seeing Jimi Hendrix live at his infamous 1968 Toronto show. The sound coming from this larger than life guitarist’s hands was what some would say was a religious awakening, musically, for Frank.
