Fran-zik is a tumbling pioneer in love's revolution. A blend of songwriter, philanthropist and entrepreneur who has written, recorded and preformed music for over 25 years to a diverse audience spanning two continents. He is the founder of Feed Them With Music a revolutionary music business which holds the promise of ending starvation, as we know it, with the joyful and unpredictable nature of music. He and his brother Timothy have released 8 CDs under the name The Brothers Frantzich over the past decade. In January of 2011 Fran-zik recorded his first solo project with the help of Aspen Colorado studio ringers. That CD entitled "Feed Them With Music" released May 1st, 2011.

He has preformed his music, live on NPR, to radio audiences of 4 million plus listeners. He has been nominated for several Minnesota Music Awards. From 1998-2006 Fran-zik was the producer and creative lead for the most successful music programs in the history of retail in the United States. His creative leadership generated sales, in excess of 40 million CDs through retail chains. In June of 2006 he resigned as Sr. Vice President of Compass Productions in Minneapolis, MN to launch Feed Them With Music (FTWM).

Fran-zik lives and sings in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado with his wife Susie and daughters Halia and Bailey.

"FRAN-ZIK's melodies and rhythms create a comfortable folk-rock flow. But in his songs about connection, freedom, inspiration and identity, his voice takes on an urgency; the singer he most closely resembles is Elvis Costello, and you can't get much more urgent than that."
