HISTORY (JUNE 2005 -FEBRUARY 2008) FRANK RIZZO was born June 2005. With all members (Nick, Troy, Grant, Scotty, Matt and Romano) being massive fans of telephone pranksters The Jerky Boys for years, we thought it would be funny to start a 6-piece thrash band with a bit of tongue in cheek madness. After constantly reading about all these bands forming using peoples names as their band name (we still don’t know why bands do that), there was no other option than to name ours after one of our imaginery heroes, FRANK RIZZO, the underground mob-gangster-icon from Chicago.
