Frank Ifield was one of the most unique country artists to emerge outside North America during the 1960s. His popularity was so immense that even before The Beatles became global icons, they opened for Frank at a show in London.
This British-born star wasn’t just known for his talent but also for his handsome looks and charming personality, which shone through in every note he sang. He had a voice that could sing in falsetto, and even yodel — a rare combination that made him unforgettable.
Grew up in rural Australia
Frank Ifield was born in England on November 30, 1937, but his story truly began to unfold when his family moved to Australia when he was just 11 years old.
