#111 Oba Frank Lords - Part II (Secret Society)

The Return of Oba Frank Lords: Secret Society Reunion & Fallout, Chaos In The Veil & More | Part II ////////

Join us as we welcome back Oba Frank Lords of Secret Society / Latin Express! Frank first appeared on the podcast in February 2021, and he’s back to share what’s been happening in his world since then.

In Part II, Frank opens up about the reunion of Miami freestyle pioneers Secret Society with founding member Rudy Gil. After reconnecting at Criteria Studios in Miami, FL, they began writing new music and performing live, though the reunion lasted just under a year.

Frank never slowed down, though. He talks about his ongoing musical projects, including collaborations with Carlos Torre (Torre and Lords) and Diego Sanchez (DMS12), and stories from remixing music for iconic artists like Gloria Estefan (Miami Sound Machine), Stevie B, Pitbull, and the “Princess of Salsa” India.

He also dives into his current band, Chaos In The Veil, featuring members of fellow 80s Miami band Erotic Exotic. Highlights include the backstory behind their cover of Bauhaus’ 1979 goth classic, “Bela Lugosi’s Dead”, performing at Propaganda in Palm Beach County, and their unique fusion of Goth and Tropicalia.
