Timeline

1946

Frank Bey (born Frank Bass; January 17, 1946June 7, 2020) was an American blues singer.

He changed his last name from Bass to Bey at age 27 when he joined the Moorish Science Temple of America.

Born and raised in Millen, Georgia, Frank was the seventh of twelve children born to gospel singer Maggie Jordan.

He began his singing career performing gospel at the age of four.

Along with his brother and two cousins, their group “The Rising Sons” toured around The South making live appearances as well as radio broadcasts.

He remained with them until age 12 or 13 when the group dissolved.

He also sang with his mother at local concerts, where he had the opportunity to help open shows for the Five Blind Boys of Alabama, the Soul Stirrers, and other notable groups.

Frank left home when he was 17 and moved to Philadelphia, where he worked for two and a half years as a driver for Gene Lawson, Otis Redding’s advance publicity man.

Redding sometimes rode in the back seat on trips between engagements.

On three of those occasions, when the opening act was late showing up, Bey says he was given the opportunity to open the shows.

1970

By the early 1970s he joined the Moorish Vanguard who began touring in the Southeast.

1976

In 1976, Bey produced The Sunset of Your Love on the Country Eastern Music label.

James Brown then published the song on Polydor Records without the Vanguard's permission.

After this, Bey left the music business for 17 years, and had his own businesses in the construction and restaurants industries.

1996

By 1996, Bey returned to singing in the Philadelphia area.

1998

2007

Health problems interfered with his ability to perform in support of the release, and he subsequently released Blues in the Pocket in 2007 on Jeffhouse Records.

By then, Bey was brought by blues DJ Noel Hayes to the Bay Area in California to perform with guitarist Anthony Paule and other area musicians.

2013

The two went on to release three albums, You Don't Know Nothing (Live), Soul for Your Blues, and Not Goin' Away between 2013 and 2015.

2018

In July 2018, Bey signed with Nola Blue Records.

In September, he released his first CD on the Nola Blue label, Back In Business.

2020

Bey died on June 7, 2020, after a long illness.
