Rat Pack Jazz Publishing
is the music publishing company of singer-songwriter Frank
Lamphere. Rat Pack Jazz Publishing is specialized in creating authentic
sounding 1950-60s pop and jazz songs. As a writer of both music and lyrics Frank can customize (lyric changes) a particular song for commercial usage. Lamphere contradicts the popular expression "They don't write 'em like they used to" because, Frank does!
Frank
has been singing professionally for about fourteen years yet he didn't
enter the songwriting profession until 2007. On an early September
morning he awoke with a "vivid" melody fresh in his head and unlike the
previous times, he immediately hummed the melody into his trusty
tape recorder. There were also words, where that melody came from.
Deciding to take a shot at writing an entire tune, Lamphere worked for
several hours jotting down ideas and by early afternoon, had a completed
song. This experience literally left him dumbfounded and thinking to
himself "What in the heck was that?" Shortly thereafter a
flood gate of melodies and "hooks" started presenting themselves.
Consequently more songs followed and by the end of the year, Frank
had completed five or six songs.
The songs have continued to
flow and many of these have been worked in front of a live audience to
much success. Frank has recorded five to date. These five have been
digitally released on the EP Frank Swings.
