Andy Frasco and The U.N.

Andy Frasco and The U.N.

Theres something to be said for people that go after what they want and pursue their dreams. Some people just do it harder than others and Andy Frasco is one of those people. Dont be fooled by his party boy demeanor, Frascos got soul and hes got a purpose. His idea of success is all his own and normality is the furthest thing from his mind. Andy Frasco & The U.N. has a unique experience to offer to audiences. They bring a party to the stage andthe blend of the gypsy bands sound comes together to emit a rowdy energy. Whether you look to him for his music or his power to put on a damn good show, Andy Frasco is working hard to bring happiness to anyone whos willing to accept it. ~Fusfoo.com Andy Frasco, the 27-year old Los Angeles, CA native singer/songwriter/band maestro/entrepreneur/party starter/everyday hustler, and his band of gypsies The U.N. have been cited frequently as Party Blues, but the bands musical inspirations and influences run much deeper incorporating elements of Soul, Funk, and Rock as well as tones of Roots, and Americana, creating a much more diverse sound and style that is distinctly Andy Frasco & the U.N. Frascos shows have been described as infectious, entertaining, and feel good. His performances are recognized as orchestrated chaos, inciting frenzied, undeniable good times, dancing, and perhaps even a good ole fashion freak out. Touring independently across the U.S. and Europe since he was 18 years old, Frasco first got his taste of the music industry managing and promoting bands when he was 16 years old -booking bands like Hello Goodbye, and working with labels such as Drive Thru andAtlantic Records, as well as venues like The Key Club in Hollywood, CA. Since his start, Frasco has embodied a DIY attitude and work ethic, making the road his home; averaging 200+ dates a year, trekking over 200,000 thousand miles spanning the country dozens of times over, blowing minds and building a loyal following everywhere he goes. 2014 marked a breakout year for Frasco, highlighted by the release of the bands 3rd full-length studio album Half A Man, a host of high profile festival performances both domestically and overseas, and recognition from national press outlets such as Pollstar, Live For Live Music, and Relix.

Continuing to build off the success of 2014, Frasco & the U.N. continued to pick up momentum both at home and abroad in 2015 with featured performances at SXSW, Wakarusa, Phases of the Moon, and Backwoods Music Festival in the U.S., as well as Totaal Festival (NL), a return to Zwarte Cross (NL), Open Flair Festival (DE), and Open Air Gross Lindow (DE) overseas.
