Frank Sintich – “Hasn’t Stopped Raining Yet”

In his latest single, “Hasn’t Stopped Raining Yet,” Chicago-based musician Frank Sintich delivers a raw and resonant piece that speaks directly to the heart of collective human struggle. Drawing inspiration from a tragic New Year’s Eve in New Orleans—an event that personally impacted him through his close ties to the city—Sintich channels grief, frustration, and hope into a track that is as emotionally charged as it is musically compelling.

From the opening notes, the song’s sonic palette is striking: distorted, jangling guitars cut through a backdrop of thunderous percussion, creating a tense and textured atmosphere. Sintich’s vocals, grounded and unflinching, carry a lyrical weight that feels both personal and broadly reflective. The rain in the title becomes a metaphor for ongoing violence and societal unrest, with the song’s message urging perseverance even in the face of disorientation and despair.

Musically, “Hasn’t Stopped Raining Yet” places Sintich firmly in the lineage of narrative-driven rock artists. There are clear echoes of Springsteen’s grit, Tom Petty’s melodic instincts, and even the introspective textures of Tom Waits. But Sintich’s voice—both literal and artistic—is his own, marked by sincerity and emotional clarity. His ability to marry storytelling with dynamic instrumentation lends the track a sense of urgency and depth.

With over 30 self-produced tracks released since 2020 and a background that spans decades in the Chicago music scene, Sintich brings experience and maturity to his work. He’s not only a musician but a multifaceted artist—songwriter, producer, guitarist, and now composer for the upcoming musical “The Weatherman.” This diverse range of pursuits adds further context to his artistic vision: one that’s grounded in truth-telling, and in creating space for emotion and reflection.

“Hasn’t Stopped Raining Yet” may be rooted in a moment of tragedy, but its core message—of endurance, of facing storms head-on—feels universal. For longtime fans and new listeners alike, this track is a testament to Frank Sintich’s ability to translate real-world events into moving musical expression.
