Frank Iero

Frank Anthony Thomas Iero Junior (pronounced “eye-ear-oh” ) (born October 31, 1981) is the rhythm guitarist and back up vocalist for the alternative rock band My Chemical Romance. Iero also has his own clothing line/music label/publishing company called Skeleton Crew.

Iero grew up in Belleville, New Jersey along with many of the other members of his current band, My Chemical Romance (although they did not go to the same schools). Frank is 5’4” and has hazel eyes with a dark brown natural hair color, of which he dyed black, but now has let it grow out again. He grew up with his mom, Linda, who divorced his dad (a great influence to him over the years). Just like fellow band mate Gerard Way, he has been playing in bands since he was eleven. Frank went to a catholic school growing up, where he learned to tie a tie. He was bullied in high school. He went to Rutgers University on a scholarship, but dropped out to join My Chemical Romance. He has played in various bands since he was eleven years old. In addition to his band Pencey Prep, Frank also played with the bands Hybrid, Sector 12, I Am a Graveyard, and briefly with Give Up the Ghost.[1] He was bullied throughout high school at Queen Of Peace in North Arlington and went to Rutgers University on a scholarship, but eventually dropped out to join My Chemical Romance.
