History
2006-2007: Debut and First Performances
Franky was originally a Pet Shop employee who was invited by G Billy to join the Penguin Band's as its guitar player. Without hesitation, Franky accepted the invitation. From there Franky practiced with his new band for the next few weeks. When it was time for his first performance at the Wild West Party, Franky was nervous that he would mess up. After playing his first chord, Franky was relieved from his tension and enjoyed himself. Sometime after the performance, Franky would write his experience in the book Franky's First Show which can be read in the Library.[1]
Since then, Franky has performed at many other parties and events such as the Lighthouse's Grand Opening and the Fall Fair 2007. The last time Franky and Penguin Band would perform without an outfit was the St. Patrick's Day Party 2008.
2008-2011: Change in Style
For the Music Jam 2008, the Penguin Band had a sudden change in their outfits. The Penguin Band leaned to more of a country-like theme with matching cowboy hats. The Band performed at the Iceberg and later waddled around Back Stage after their performance.
Sometime after the Music Jam 2010, the Penguin Band changed their outfits a third time. Franky replaced his cowboy hat and red sneakers with a green jacket and purple shoes.
Prior to the Puffle Party 2011, Franky helped Cadence find a Puffle to adopt. This eventually led up to Lolz's adoption.[2]
When the Penguin Band returned for the 4th Music Jam, their new outfits were publicly revealed in the Club Penguin Times.
2012-Present: Modern Penguin Band
In September 2012, Franky sung the lyrics for Anchors Aweigh as the other members played instrumentals. A month later, Franky performed in a duet with Cadence for Ghosts Just Wanna Dance.
After being invited by Cadence, she and the Penguin Band created a concept called SoundStudio. Presumably around the same time, Best Day Ever is recorded with Cadence as the lead singer and the Penguin Band as instrumentals. During the Music Jam 2014, the Penguin Band and Cadence performed on the Main Stage of the Music Cruise.
Appearance
Franky is a yellow-colored penguin. He wears a green jacket over a magenta and orange sweater on top of a white T-Shirt with a penguin silhouette wearing headphones. He also wears jeans and has purple shoes. The inside of his jacket appears to be a bright lime-like color and in the inside of his magenta jacket is orange.
Prior to 2011, Franky wore a cowboy hat, red sneakers and carried an acoustic guitar.
Before Franky became a mascot, he wore no outfit and was only seen playing his acoustic guitar.
