About

Frank Turner on Tour

Frank Turner is an award-winning, internationally charting singer and songwriter best known for his brand of rebellious folk-punk-pop music. The hard-touring artist has built a huge international following, selling out venues on both sides of the Atlantic -- including the Wembley Arena in 2011 with a capacity of 12,000 fans (an achievement only matched that year by The Rolling Stones and U2). If you haven't been lucky enough to see Frank Turner in concert, you might recognize him from the opening ceremony of the 2012 Olympics alongside Paul McCartney and the Arctic Monkeys. His music has drawn comparisons to the likes of Bruce Springsteen and Mumford & Sons, but the grizzled rocker's signature sound occupies a musical niche of its own. He creates a distinctive brand of folk-ish punk guided by a harmonica, acoustic guitar and rich vocal delivery. In the studio and on tour, Frank Turner is backed by The Sleeping Souls -- a five-piece indie band from England made up of Ben Lloyd (guitar, mandolin), Tarrant Anderson (bass), Callum Green (drums), and Matt Nasir (piano, mandolin). As the frontman to his comrades, Turner is a bold performer known to stage dive and dance with the crowd. Both an angry and joyous troubadour, his heartfelt lyrics are sung with passion and shouted back in cheery unison by the audience, linked in arms, pointing at the same words inked on their skin. Now back on the road through 2022-2023, you can see Frank Turner & The Sleeping Souls on tour as they return to North America promoting their ninth studio album, FTHC, released in February 2022.

Frank Turner Live in Concert

FTHC pays homage to Frank Turner's hardcore roots as the vocalist in the London-based rock band, Million Dead, with a collection of tracks more aggressive than their earlier publications. When the outfit (which he started back in high school) called it a day in 2005, Turner set aside his heavy metal/rock and roll upbringing to explore a love for country and folk. He embarked on a solo project, which would become one of the most successful careers among UK soloists in the last decade, performing an astonishing 2,585 gigs over a span of his 17-year career and counting. Turner redirected his attention to primarily acoustic songs and paired them with quintessential punk lyrics that often challenge status quo belief systems. His first studio album as a solo artist, Sleep Is For The Week, dropped in January 2007 to much critical acclaim. Since then, he's produced a prolific volume of work, including nine studio albums (the last five of which have charted in the Top 5 in the UK), seven live albums, six compilations, four rarities, 13 EPs, 36 singles, and 29 music videos, among other releases. Additional accomplishments include authoring multiple best-selling books, producing a podcast series, releasing a handful of DVDs, and breaking the record for the number of consecutive appearances at the Reading Festival.

    Fantastic!

    by VanKev on 2023-05-06History - Toronto

    Heard so much about his energetic live shows and he did not dissappoint! Played a solid hour plus (co headlined with the equally if not more fired up Interrupters who also put in a solid hour.) Frank coming off two sick days was in full form, and the crowd (especially the 'pit'/circle) had a blast. Chuck Ragan was the opener and was also great. Excellent value for a $62 all in ticket.

    by Travis on 2023-05-06History - Toronto

    Frank Turner puts on an amazing show every time. The day before this show he was very sick and contemplated cancelling the show. He played anyway and had the energy of someone 100%. He truely rocks.

    What a great music experience!

    by JCulshaw on 2023-05-06History - Toronto

    Was looking forward to this for a long time! Frank Turner showed up and amazing effort as he still didn’t seem 100%. It was great to see the Interrupters for the first time at a live venue! Both were excellent and entertaining the crowd, engaging them, and making them feel part of the show! The venue itself, History, was an amazing music hall. Acoustics were awesome, everything was clear, including the vocals couldn’t have been a better night.

    10 Thumbs up!

    by Aaron Gaspar on 2023-05-06History - Toronto

    Oh wow, Frank Turner truly is something special, great performance, and you’d have no idea he was getting over a cold. Opening acts were great as well, and History may be my new favorite venue! Will definitely go see Frank the very next chance I get!
