RELEASES NEW MUSIC VIDEO
"SAN FRANCISCO"
FROM HIS LATEST RELEASE
'REFLECTIONS'
ZOOM SPECIAL EVENT ON
INTERVIEWING THE LEGENDS
Frank Hannon, co-founder and lead guitarist of the hard rock band TESLA, has released a
new music video for his instrumental track “San Francisco.” The song taps into a
deeper improvisational lineage Frank has long been part of -– a side of his
playing that has often lived just outside the spotlight of his arena-rock
success and highlights a more exploratory guitar voice that many listeners may
not immediately associate with him.
“San Francisco” is the latest single from his new, country-western infused
instrumental album, Reflections. The video features original, hand-played oil-light visuals from
Brotherhood of Light Show artist Chris Samardizch, directly connecting the
project to the Fillmore-era psychedelic tradition that helped shape the Bay
Area jam scene.
While Frank is widely known for his arena-rock legacy, another side of his
story has always leaned toward improvisation and the communal Bay Area
tradition. Hisfather-in-law was Dickey Betts, and
that melodic, exploratory sensibility runs through his phrasing. He has sat
in multiple times with moe. and built a close musical bond with
members of the Allman Betts family, earning credibility in rooms
where his metal reputation initially raised eyebrows. Growing up in Northern
California, the influence of Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, and Santana shaped
how he approaches harmony and feel on the guitar.
That spirit is front and center on Reflections, an instrumental album that
feels like a natural evolution for him. Recorded as raw first takes with an
emphasis on touch and emotional arc, it captures instinct over polish. “San
Francisco” was tracked as an open-ended jam, beginning with live bass and
expanded through one-take guitar overdubs, moving from psychedelic textures
into a flamenco-inspired bridge.
Frank first connected with Samardizch at the Fillmore while performing with
Devon Allman and Duane Betts, making the collaboration feel rooted in shared
history. The Brotherhood of Light Show lineage traces back to the Summer of
Love, the Monterey Pop Festival, and decades at the Fillmore Auditorium.
