Frank Iero From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Frank Anthony Iero (pronounced "eye-ear-oh" [said himself]) (born October 31, 1981) is the rhythm guitarist and back up vocalist for the alternative rock/pop-punk band My Chemical Romance. Iero also has his own clothing line/music label/publishing company called Skeleton Crew
Biography [edit] Before My Chemical Romance Iero grew up in Belleville, New Jersey along with many of the other members of his current band, My Chemical Romance (although they did not go to the same schools). He had been playing in various other bands since he was eleven years old. In addition to his band Pencey Prep, Frank also played with the bands Hybrid, Sector 12, I Am a Graveyard, and briefly with Give Up the Ghost.[1] He was bullied throughout high school and went to Rutgers University on a scholarship, but eventually dropped out to join My Chemical Romance. He was recruited to fill out the band's sound when his band, in which he was vocalist for, Pencey Prep, broke up.[2]For a period of time, Iero also was roommates with the band's bassist, Mikey Way.
[edit] Music Iero has been playing in bands since the age of 11. His father, his grandfather, and great uncle are a major influence on his music career. The first show Iero attended was Weston, The Fiendz, and My Favorite Citizen at The Pipeline in Newark, NJ.
Iero uses an Epiphone Elitist Les Paul Custom guitar with an Antique White finish. One of his many guitars sports the name Pansy which appeared in the 2006 My Chemical Romance calendar and is also a nickname of his, although recently, Pansy was broken by an MTV guitar tech. Iero has named many of his guitars; some of these names include "Texas", "Bella", "Sinatra", "Pansy", "Angel", "New" and "Jersey". He has been seen playing Angel on several TV appearances and the guitar makes a cameo on Life on the Murder Scene. He admires Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day, and learned to play the guitar by imitating him.
[edit] Prone to injury Iero suffered from Epstein-Barr virus and battled bronchitis throughout his childhood.[3] He has suffered from a case of mono and has had numerous lacerations to his head, hands, and knees. He claims he gets hurt every show. He believes the worst injury he sustained was when he broke his toes.
