BAND MEMBER; Frank Brandis INSTRUMENT; Trumpet PORTRAYED BY; John Wildman (Prince For A Day) The leader of The White Angels was born in California. On his 12th birthday, he wanted a game system. But his parents got him a trumpet. When coming from a music lesson, he heard Joe Roman playing the guitar in the garage. Joe heard him play & they quickly became best friends musically. Frank had a job working @ Pizza Man Pizza to save up money to buy a white trumpet. Joe bought it for him for his 16th birthday. When Joe wanted to be a motorcycle racer, Frank continued playing trumpet. He played in a couple of horn sections in pop bands for a few years. Then he decided to go solo when he answered an ad for a trumpet player needed on The SS Rosita. Frank was a leader! He even met Joe on The SS Rosita & had a jam session with him. After a saxophonist took over the gig, Frank moved to Philadelphia to start a band, The White Angels. Since being in the band, he adopted a kid named Michael & fell in love @ the beach pageant when he saw Victoria playing trumpet. They got married @ The Hollywood Bowl.
