Frank Bey (born Frank Bass in Millen, Georgia, on 17 January 1946; died 7 June 2020) was an American blues singer (he changed his last name from Bass to Bey at age 27 when he joined the Moorish Science Temple of America). In 2005, Bey began touring with guitarist Anthony Paule as Frank Bey With The Anthony Paule Band. His final solo album, All My Dues Are Paid, was released in January 2020.

During the early 1970s, Bey was a member of the Moorish Vanguard. In 1976, Bey produced The Sunset of Your Love on the Country Eastern Music label. James Brown then published the song on Polydor Records without their permission. The group initially accused Bey of giving the song to Brown but Brown later settled and admitted to taking the song. After this, Bey left the music business and would not sing again for 17 years.

By 1996, Bey returned to singing in the Philadelphia area. In 1998, Bey's debut album, Steppin' Out, was released on MAG Records. Health problems interfered with his ability to perform in support of the release, and he subsequently released Blues in the Pocket in 2007 on Jeffhouse Records.

In 2005, Bey began touring with guitarist Anthony Paule as Frank Bey With The Anthony Paule Band. They released three albums, You Don't Know Nothing (Live), Soul for Your Blues, and Not Goin' Away, between 2013 and 2015.

In July 2018, Bey signed with Nola Blue Records. In September that year, he released his first CD on the Nola Blue label, Back In Business. This was followed by the release of All My Dues Are Paid in January 2020. Read more on Last.fm.
