(PR) On August 26th at The Bowery Ballroom, friends of Frank Bango will celebrate their friendship and Bango's music with a benefit show to support Bango through this challenging time.

Bango, who has just completed nearly two years of cancer treatments, is incredibly grateful for the generosity of The Bowery and his friends, and is looking forward to this evening of great music. The Bowery Ballroom has been Frank's home as a bartender, bar manager, musician and fan for almost ten years.

The show, which will feature sets by Nada Surf (acoustic), Dean & Britta, Richard Buckner, Simone White, Sam Champion and more, will be an act of love and support that Frank will never forget.

The doors are at 7pm, $20.00, and is 18+.

In other news, Frank Bango just released "The Sweet Songs of Decay", his latest full-length, which was recorded mostly in New York at Jack McKeever's Maid's Room Studio and in Frank's NYC apartment, as well as in Hoboken, New Jersey.

Bango produced the record with help from numerous friends and allies including Sean Eden (Luna), Steve Calhoon (Pretendo, Skeleton Key, Vic Chesnutt, Daniel Johnston), Jane Scarpantoni, Joan Wasser, Graham Maby (Joe Jackson), Jeremy Chatsky, and Bango's longtime band The Magic Fingers. The record was mixed by Pete Min and Ed Stasium (Talking Heads, The Ramones, The Smithereens, among countless others).
