Frankie Mann (born 1955) is an American electronic music composer and performance artist. Mann was a part of the New York City avant-garde music scene of the 1970s and 1980s. Mann was born in Charlotte, North Carolina in 1955 and studied electronic music at Oberlin College and Mills College.[1][2] Mann's work was released by the record label Lovely Music, Ltd.[3]

Mann's compositions have been featured on KPFA-FM in Berkeley, California,[4] where they also had a radio show called "Black Spot Punch."[1] In addition to radio, Mann's work has been featured at numerous visual and performing arts venues in New York City, including at Roulette Intermedium,[5] The Whitney Museum of American Art,[2] and The Museum of Modern Art.[6]
