Tesla Guitarist Frank Hannon Debuts "Born Free" Video

December 16, 2014

Tesla guitarist Frank Hannon has released a video for “Born Free”, from his upcoming ‘World Peace’ album — avialable for pre-order at frankhannon.com.

In a burst of creative energy, Hannon started writing his own batch of songs shortly after Tesla released their latest album ‘Simplicity’. While on the road touring during the summer or 2014, Hannon spent all the lonely hours in his hotel rooms recording musical ideas on a little Boss hard disc recording machine, and the ideas started flowing so much that he would literally be recording music in the dressing rooms five minutes prior to Tesla stepping onstage!

After returning home, Hannon knew he had a batch of strong material, so current Frank Hannon Band members Aaron Leigh (bass) and Kelly Smith (drums) joined him in the studio to help put the album into fruition. After the majority of songs were recorded, an old original concept came back to Frank Hannon’s mind from the year 2000 when the guitarist wrote an instrumental native American chant song he titled “World Peace?” which asks the question… when will it come?

With that concept in mind, the flames grew hotter and the final group of songs were written and recorded. The full album is now recorded and featured songs will include powerful heavy protests such as “The Picture”, “Electric Chair”, “Born Free”, and the happier positive melodies of “Lucky 13”, “Down The Road” and “Break The Silence”.

Both the title track, and the album ‘World Peace’, not only showcase Frank Hannon as a powerful lead singer and shredding lead guitarist, but also a prolific song writer. The recognizable sound of Tesla is evident here, but the sound of an unleashed artist is also heard.
