TRAGIC END for this legend. With heavy hearts, we announce the passing. When you find out who he is, you will cry: Check the first comment

 

Frank Ifield was one of the most unique country artists to emerge outside North America during the 1960s. His popularity was so immense that even before The Beatles became global icons, they opened for Frank at a show in London.

This British-born star wasn’t just known for his talent but also for his handsome looks and charming personality, which shone through in every note he sang. He had a voice that could sing in falsetto, and even yodel — a rare combination that made him unforgettable.

Frank Ifield was born in England on November 30, 1937, but his story truly began to unfold when his family moved to Australia when he was just 11 years old.

In his later years, the 1960s pop sensation continued to tour, blending stories from his showbiz past with his musical performances. Frank also stayed active in the Australian music scene, supporting rising stars like country singer Nicki Gillis.

He carved out a new role in the entertainment industry by nurturing talents and initiating key events.

”During my career I have played all the places I dreamed of and more,” he said.

In, 2007 he was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame and in June 2009, Frank was presented with the Medal of the Order of Australia for ”service to the arts as an entertainer”.

Cause of death

In May 2024, we were deeply saddened to hear of the passing of the beloved musician Frank Ifield. The news was shared by his friend, music historian and journalist Glenn A. Baker, who announced on Facebook that Frank had peacefully passed away in his sleep.

The legendary singer died in Hornsby Hospital, Sydney, of pneumonia on 18 May 2024, at the age of 86.

”Every person who came upon him, in any circumstance, was overwhelmed by his kindness and courtesy,” Glenn Baker wrote.

Frank leaves behind his devoted wife, Carole Wood; his two brothers, Bob and David; and his children from his previous marriage, Mark Philip and Sarah.
