Today The FMs announce the first-ever Frankie Fest – an annual queer rock festival honoring the legacy of Frankie Rex – taking place on May 11 at Coney Island USA. The event, which will also serve as the record release party for PINK + BLACK, will feature the first performance from The FMs in over four years – and the first-ever without Frankie. Frankie Fest highlights a range of cutting-edge, NYC-based queer performers showcasing indie rock, goth, riot grrrl, punk, metal, and more. The inaugural Frankie Fest lineup is as follows: Pink Velvet Witch // Jordan Fiction // Villains // Llynks // The FMs // Frida Kill // Miss Cherry Delight. Tickets are available now. Doors at 4pm, shows until 10pm.

Frankie Fest is a benefit for CFLC (Chosen Family Law Center). Proceeds benefiting CFLC’s new “Frankie Maddox Rex Memorial Fund” will support low-income TNBGNC New Yorkers with free legal services to support the dignity and safety they deserve, including name changes, support with identity documents, asylee green card applications, and medical advance directives.
