Frank Turner is one of the UK’s most successful artists. He’s released 9 studio albums in his 17 year solo career, the most recent of which, ‘FTHC’ (Feb 2022) became his first #1 hit on the UK Official Album Chart. His previous four albums have all peaked at #2 or #3 in the chart. Having sold over a million albums worldwide, he has 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.
Internationally Frank has played headline shows in all continents with big followings across Europe and the USA. He has just completed the ambitious 50 States in 50 Days tour – the first non US citizen to do so and his award-winning 4 day festival, Lost Evenings, just finished in Berlin. The city-based, multi-venue event will be in California in 2023.
During the pandemic, Frank raised over £200K for struggling grassroot music venues with his weekly series of livestreams. This resulted in him winning the Music Venue Trust’s award for Outstanding Achievement for Grassroots Music Venues. He has also won two AIM Awards, one Kerrang! Award and has been nominated for numerous NME Awards.
Frank Turner & The Sleeping Souls play York Barbican on 31st January 2023, with Lottery Winners and Wilswood Buoys as support. Soundsphere Magazine will be there to capture all the action.
