Frankie started his interest in music with the help of his local church. He mostly sang gospel music, and after singing in the church for a while he would become familiar with secular music. He became interested in certain artists who blended gospel into their own music. According to him, he changed his name to Frankie because of admiration for the group Frankie Lymon and The Teenagers. When he was 12 years old, he was known to have toured with The Silhouettes, though no mention of him was ever given by the band when they were live. Later on, he would form his own a cappella band called The Blenders; the group was inspired by acts such as The Del Vikings and The Dells. These were a modest start to his net worth.

Eventually, the band would separate and he would go on to his next opportunity with The Butlers. This group had their first break with a recording in 1963, and they were eventually noticed by Kenny Gamble who helped release their album. Unfortunately, the group was not popular in Philadelphia, and after touring a little they decided to move to California. They changed their genre and were noticed by Marvin Gaye, who convinced them to change their name to Maze. They toured as the opening act for Gaye for a while, and started to gain a significant amount of popularity. They released eight studio albums during the course of their run, all of which achieved gold in the United States. Many of their songs also reached the Top 10 of the R&B charts, and albums such as “Can’t Stop the Love” and “Silky Soul” became chart-topping albums; a few of their popular songs include “Can’t Get Over You” and “Back in Stride”. They also found success overseas, especially in the UK during the 1970s and 80s, performing there as well as broadcasting with Capital Radio, having a few hit singles on the country’s charts.

For his personal life, details are largely private, but it is known that Beverly has a son who has toured with Maze as a drummer. His son recently released a tribute for the band and his father, founding his own record label. Frankie has been well known for his onstage look which was often all-white casual clothing with a baseball hat. According to him, he never really expected the success they received. He now resides in the San Francisco Bay Area.
