Maurice Frank is a native New Yorker. He grew up listening to the great singers of the 50's and 60's and it left its mark on him.

Mad Romance and Love is his debut release. It's heart felt and striking for its warmth, sensitivity and choice of songs. The musicians are top notch! Featuring the groove tones of tenor saxophonist Eric Alexander and pianist/arranger John DiMartino, who provides a palette of swing and latin colors. Performing on the East Coast and beyond and now residing in Florida, "Moe's" new release is a sophisticated sound coming from a "new to the scene", yet seasoned artist, who is a fresh interpreter of both standards and not frequently heard songs.

"What I feel so abundantly from Maurice's singing is a deep and honest affinity for the ballad, the love song and the swinger.Congratulations for nailing a gem of a recording." —Benny Green
