Frank Turner, Leeds gig November 2012

Published on 27/06/2012 09:27

FOLLOWING his recent massive sold-out headline show at the Wembley Arena, Frank Turner has announced he will be setting off on a full 16-date UK tour this autumn, with a stop-off in Leeds.

The popular singer, guitarist, storyteller and all-round stage entertainer has had an exceptional couple of years with a huge sold-out 2011 UK tour culminating at Hammersmith Apollo, main stage sets at Reading and Leeds Festivals, winning two AIM Awards for best live act and hardest working act, a top 12 album in England Keep My Bones and his biggest headline show at Wembley.

This year has seen the release of Frank’s Second Three Years - a collection of live tracks, sessions, cover versions, B-sides and lost songs from the past three years.

The collection features live recordings of the traditional folk song Barbara Allen, from Shepherd’s Bush and the show-stopping Father’s Day, from Union Chapel, both in 2009; covers versions of Springsteen, Nirvana, NOFX and Flanders & Swann as well as session tracks from Radio One and the bonus tracks featured on the limited deluxe edition of England Keep My Bones.

To coincide with Record Store Day, meanwhile, Turner released a specially limited edition seven-inch vinyl of his new double-A side single with live favourite I Still Believe and fun cover of Queen’s Somebody To Love, which he first played at last year’s Leeds Festival at the end of his second set of the day.

Frank’s next tour will see him go to all corners of the UK, with special guests to be announced soon. He will be in Leeds at the O2 Academy on Monday, November 12, with tickets on sale now from 0113 2444600, online from.gigsandtours.com or from Crash or Jumbo Records.
