PRESS
The Austin Chronicle - on The Harms "Catchy fuzz-punk sermons with the wires exposed."
OVRLD The Harms- “Hard hitting girl rock, Motown-esque choruses and jangly garage numbers: The Harms have it all."
OC Weekly, writer: Chris Ziegler - “Frank writes and plays like she's both armed and on the run, with her time and vision saved only for the most vital things, and Owens' production shows just how gutsy these songs really are.” review, Smile Trials, 2011
Performing Songwriter - Chase Frank music on Midnight Manor "This seven-song set casts Frank in a mostly menacing light, be it the arch exhilaration of "Doubt" or the ominous strains of "Some Friend You Are" and "Six Degrees. Edge and attitude win out.
Clearly, the lady is a vamp."
