Punk rock musician. Lead singer of the Canadian band Teenage Head. He was born Frank Hannah Kerr and raised in Hamilton. The band was started at Westdale high school in 1973 and quickly rose to become among the leading groups in Canada. In 1980 fans crowded their concert at the Ontario Place Forum in Toronto which resulted in a riot as officals tried to close the gates. They continued to play into 2008. Throat cancer was discovered just a month prior to his death. A Teenage Head banner was hung at the front door of the funeral home.
