Frank Bombaci, Jr. is everything but an archetypal college student. Or, is he the new archetypal student? Attends classes. Partcipates in activities on campus. Hangs out with friends. Goes to parties, studies. Sleeps (maybe). And, listens to music – a lot of music.
His last name—shortened to “Bomb” and converted into an acronym that stands for “Bring Our Music Back”—lends itself nicely to the name of a multi-stage music festival, B.O.M.B. Fest, created by Frank and designed to highlight the pure energy of live music.
Bombaci’s dream is for music lovers of all types to come together and appreciate the raw and original bits of music that are slowly seeping away from the mainstream music industry.
We caught up with the Loyola University freshman to find out exactly what it’s been like during a year of interesting changes as he takes his music outside the confines of his dorm room.
