Description:
A natural talent, by 16 he was already a seasoned veteran of the Las Vegas
music scene, eventually being signed by Atlantic Records for his first release
Poor Man’s Son in 2003 and in 2004, Perez released My 4th of July.
Perez
would step back onto the worlds’ stage in 2008 as part of the band Scars on
Broadway (Interscope) with Daron Malakian and John Dolmayan both of the band
System of a Down assuming the role of guitarist. Recruited to lend his vocals
to Camp Freddy’s live shows, in 2009, legendary guitarist Slash announced Perez
on vocals for his live band. When not on the road with Slash, Perez formed a
new collaboration with Dave Kushner (Velvet Revolver) and tracks began
appearing online under the moniker DKFXP. It wasn’t long before they received a
call saying Meat Loaf heard Perez’s song “Party of One” and wanted to make it his
own. Meat Loaf recorded the track which was released on his 2012 album Hell in
a handbasket.
That
same year, Perez would also get the call to lend his vocals to a cover of “Slip
Kid” with Anvil for the FX television series “Sons of Anarchy” – a relationship
that continues to this day with Perez working on music for the fifth season in
a row as well as performing live with the Sons Of Anarchy band The Forest
Rangers featuring Katey Sagal.
In 2012,
Perez along with Kushner, Scott Shriner (Weezer), Joey Castillo (Queens Of The
Stone Age), and Dave Warren (The Simpsons) formed PusherJones and released an
EP. The single “Count Me Out,” written by Perez and Kushner, was featured on
the soundtrack for The Avengers. That same year Perez was bestowed the honor of
being the vocalist for The Doors at the Sunset Strip Music Festival in Los
Angeles.
Franky
Perez has always been a prolific artist but 2013 may be proving to be the most
creative of his career. He has begun work on his third studio album entitled
ADDICT which may be the most honest music he's ever written...his own very
personal journey of love, loss and vices – three things he knows only too well.
