Frank was born in Hanover in April 1945. He began playing
music in the early 60s and in the mid-60s founded his first band, which covered
famous songs. In 1969 he founded ELOY, named after the Eloi people from H.G.
Wells' novel »The Time Machine«. For the first, eponymous album,
»Eloy«
Frank still limited himself to composing and playing the guitar. After the
departure of vocalist
Erich Schriever
in 1972, Frank took over as lead singer as well and became the front man of
the band. Frank Bornemann is the head and producer of ELOY, and the only musician
to have been with the band since 1969. Since the 70s, he has also worked as a
producer for other bands, such as the »Scorpions« (»Fly To The
Rainbow«, 1974). Frank Bornemann is still working in the music business today.
Horus-Sound-Studio,
which he obtained in 1979, is one of the best and most successful recording studios
in Germany. It is now under new management. Furthermore, he founded a music publishing
group and the label
Artist Station.
Frank has made it his task in life to actively support young bands and artists. Among
others, he has helped the »Guano Apes« to success. He is currently working
on new songs for ELOY.
Frank Bornemann was involved with all ELOY productions as a band member.
