Frank Turner of 'Million Dead' fame but a man of cult solo stardom in his own right, a man who has toured the UK more than most bands of today and whose powerful folk melodies abscond words deep from within his heart, has released a single of which the proceeds will go towards the Breast [...]

One of most interesting breakout artists of 2009 is Frank Turner. His lyrics are smart and his music is good. It's a good sign when you are pushed into thought, and want to raise a pint at the same time, don't ya reckon? The British folk singer just released a new video for his song 'Poetry Of The Deed,' off the album by the same name. Enjoy.
Frank Turner is always hard at work, touring constantly and doing things his own, DIY way.He also just released the second video from his latest album Poetry Of The Deed [DLE Review] and its for the song that bears the same name. The video is a collaboration of some “Frank is on the road” footage [...]
Last Sunday I piled on the train westwards from Lincoln to Nottingham, the first time I'd left the Lincoln city limits in just under a month, to see my first concert in almost the same amount of time. Being my third time seeing Frank Turner, once supporting Gaslight Anthem, and once in a brilliant instore appearance at Pure Groove records in London, I knew what to expect and was therefore prett...
Frank Turner's work ethic is certainly not in doubt. Take the video for recent single The Road, from his third album Poetry of the Deed, in which he successfully pulled off the amazing feat of performing 24 gigs in 24 hours.For the album itself he has been similarly enthusiastic, passionately taking command of the full range of labels that are thrown his way, from Billy Bragg-esque folk to punk an
You may have noticed Frank Turner getting more and more popular over the past year. He had been tearing it up in the UK and then he signed to Epitaph Records and then went on tour with The Offspring and Sum 41. On August 31st, he'll release a digital only ...
through his witty but clever lyrics and fitting melodieshe has rekindled my love for acoustic/folk musichttp://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=36214937
There’s a man on stage, slurring and smiling. He has a battered guitar to go with his stained tee, fraying cap and well-worn face. If you didn’t know any better, you might think they’d dragged him out of the gutter to play, but this man is the wonderfully-monikered Beans On Toast (5/6) and he’s bloody [...]
It must be our fifth time with Monsieur Frank Turner this year, but the appeal of his folkish charms never wanes. We don't even miss Million Dead so much anymore. On the Radio 1 stage again for his umpteenth consecutive appearance at Reading & Leeds, Turner starts events by informing the crowd that this is the first time that he's played the Leeds leg first.
It's been a while since we last touched base with Frank, during which time his often one-manned show has become quite the behemoth across the UK and America, selling out countless high capacity venues in the process. This strikes me as a little surreal, as the last time I saw him play was in a grotty bar in Boscombe (near Bournemouth. n.b. Don't go to Boscombe) with 8 other punters, sat cross-...
Frank Turner will be releasing his brand new download-only single ‘The Road’ on 31st August through Xtra Mile Recordings/Epitaph Records. ‘Poetry…’ – Frank’s third studio album – is released a week later on 7th September on Xtra Mile Recordings/Epitaph for UK and Ireland and through Epitaph/Xtra Mile Recordings for the rest of the world.

Last night was my first Frank Turner live experience. I was pointed in his direction by the marvellous Winston’s Zen earlier in the year, and since then he’s rarely been out of my top 10 last.fm most played artists of the week. Not entirely sure what to expect, I took my sister along to the [...]
