Frenċ Cutajar Il-Witli, also known as Frank, is a folksinger from It-Triq tal-Għajn (Fontana), Gozo, who sings improvised verse and ballads.

He started folksinging in Gozo as an eight your old, but with the demise of his mother, as a twelve year old his father took him to Siġġiewi, where he grew up.

He emigrated to Australia. He has also folk sung the ballad, written by Mikiel Azzopardi, about drowning of twenty-two Gozitans and one Maltese near Ħondoq ir-Rummien, as they were crossing from Malta to Gozo on the 30th of October 1948.

Cutajar has taken part in spirtu pront bouts with visiting renowned folksinger Mikiel Cutajar Is-Superstar, and Australia-based Salvu Galea tal-Kalora and Loretu Vella tas-Siċċu in Melbourne.
