Frank Stopak

Songwriter/Musician/Publisher

Frank Stopak is an accomplished businessman turned music publisher, from Rockville, Maryland. Besides being a talented musician and award-winning songwriter, Frank founded Nashville-based publishing company Spinville Music.

Frank is known for his gift of ideating original song concepts and titles, crafting smart lyrics, and pulling it all together with memorable melodies. He has an innate sense for song production, so the listener hears something fresh and new with every song.

In one of his cowriter’s own words – “I’ve heard a million times in my career someone say ‘I’m a songwriter.’ Well some are, and some aren’t. Frank Stopak is a songwriter, and a darn good one, as well as a good guitar player. He always brings fresh new ideas to the table. He will go over a lyric with a fine-tooth comb until it’s right, which is a hard quality to find these days. I love writing with Frank, we have a great chemistry together, and I hope we write some BIG OL’ HITS together. Thanks for the songs Frank” – Larry McCoy, writer of Thomas Rhett's #1 single Make Me Wanna.

Meet Frank Stopak

In his own words…

“I took piano lessons as a kid, but once I held my first guitar, I no longer needed the egg-timer to monitor my practice sessions.  It was love at first pluck, the hours just flew by.

Fast forward to my education at Duke, where I studied business, and was in a local band with some fellow students. My fondest memories there were playing in front of crowds with my friends. After graduation and later obtaining my MBA, I did the business thing for years. I’ve been blessed and all has been great. Now I have a new goal, which is to get really good at another passion of mine, songwriting.

Over the past several years, I’ve been writing on my own, and along with some folks in Nashville, and enjoying the ride. My concentration has been in the Contemporary Country genre, but I enjoy writing Indie, Pop and Americana as well. I have placed in several international songwriting contests, had some #1’s with broadjam.com, awarded many “Best of SongU’s”, and multiple nominations for “One to Watch" and "Publisher's List" with NSAI. I have garnered hundreds of forwards and numerous placements. All a good start. My ultimate goal is to have a song place on the Billboard charts!

Please check out some of the songs I have posted here. Some country, some pop, written with some great friends and talents, and brought to life with some gifted vocalists. I hope you enjoy them!”
