Who is Frankie McBride?

Frankie McBride is an Irish country singer, who rose to stardom in the second half of the 1960s.

McBride's hit single, "Five Little Fingers", reached No. 2 on the Irish charts and No. 19 on the UK Singles Chart in 1967. A full-length self-titled album hit No. 29 on the UK Albums Chart the following year. The song was noted for its blending of rock and roll and country, a trend which became increasingly acceptable to mainstream audiences in the late 1960s.
