Frank Turner
Upcoming concerts and tickets

Frank Turner, born December 28, 1981, is an English singer-songwriter known for his blend of folk and punk influences. Hailing from Meonstoke, Hampshire, Turner first gained recognition as the vocalist for the post-hardcore band Million Dead. Following the band's dissolution in 2005, he launched a successful solo career, primarily focusing on acoustic-driven music.

Turner began performing solo acoustic sets even before Million Dead disbanded. His first official solo performance took place on September 18, 2004. These early solo shows served as a platform to showcase his songwriting abilities, perform covers, and introduce his music to new audiences, sometimes even incorporating acoustic versions of Million Dead songs.

In early 2006, Turner recorded the "Campfire Punkrock" EP in Oxford, with the band Dive Dive providing backing on three tracks. Released in May 2006 on Xtra Mile Recordings, the EP sold out quickly and required a repress due to high demand. The success of this EP paved the way for the recording of his debut solo album, "Sleep Is For The Week," which was completed in August and September 2006. Recorded in Oxford with Dive Dive contributing to select tracks, the album featured a live recording of "The Ballad Of Me And My Friends" with audience participation.
