Frank van Essen
Collendoorn, Netherlands
Full time musician, composer, arranger, producer - Iona, Celestial Fire, SANCTUM
"It is extremely rare to find a top class drummer playing a mean fiddle! Add to that mix his skills as composer, arranger and producer, and you can imagine that the musical result will be somewhat special. Frank van Essen is such a musician. Mostly known for his powerful drumming & emotive violin playing for the British band Iona, he is venturing out into a whole musical world of his own".
