FRANK TURNER AND THE SLEEPING SOULS (UK)

Frank Turner is one of the UK’s most successful artists. His tenth album Undefeated is out May 3rd via Xtra Mile Recordings. Having sold over a million albums worldwide, he has previously scored three gold-certified albums and one silver status.

Since playing his first solo gig in 2004, Frank has played almost 2700 shows all over the world. His biggest UK headline shows include London’s O2 Arena and the world famous Wembley Arena. He has performed at almost every UK venue imaginable, from tiny clubs to stadiums and was even chosen by Danny Boyle to perform at the opening ceremony of 2012 Olympic Games.

”There are no clichés about the difficult 10th album, so in some ways, that’s a liberating statement. But at the same time, I have a duty to justify writing and releasing a 10th album. That’s a lot of records for anybody. Also, I’m 42. Which is not a sexy, rock’n’roll age. But all through my career, I’ve been interested in writers like Loudon Wainwright III or The Hold Steady, people who write about adulthood, essentially.”
