Frank has teamed up with Kit Kat to launch a special 'Battle of the Bands' competition to find new, exciting musical talent.

A series of auditions will take place across the country in order to find the 'next big thing'.

Speaking about the competition, Frank said: “It’s a talent contest. You can be a solo artist; you can be an electronic outfit; you can be a band. The most important thing is that it's power to the audience, it’s not a text or phone affair where the voters are going to get charged.

"There will be six shows at six different university unions, everywhere from Hull to London Metropolitan. The idea is that anyone can come along and do a show; kinda like an open mic night but with all the facilities available to deal with any kind of act."

Participating unions include Hull, Newcastle, London Metropolitan, Salford, Nottingham Trent and Plymouth - the first round will take place on November 5th.

The overall winner of the contest will receive £3000 and a masterclass with Frank.

“They are calling it a ‘masterclass’ but really I’ll be hanging out with the band and showing them a few tricks of the trade," he explained.
