"I think Frank Turner will turn out to be one of the best singer songwriters of our generation." Mike Davies Radio 1 (22nd January 2008)

“Gather round kids, old beardy balls has something to tell you. ...I love Frank Turner” Zane Lowe Radio 1

In the week that FRANK TURNER releases his brand new second album 'Love Ire & Song' through Xtra Mile Recordings we can announce some exciting tour and summer festival news.

With dates on his current UK tour selling out fast, fans will be pleased to know that Frank has been confirmed as main support for pals The Holloways on their forthcoming UK tour and has bagged 11 festival appearances over the summer, so far. These include 2 amazing slots at this year’s Glastonbury Festival, on the Avalon Stage and as part of Rock Against Racism on the Leftfield Stage.

‘Love Ire & Song’ is out now in shops and online. It has been lauded by all sections of the music industry winning folk over at radio, TV and press receiving glowing reviews and a lot of airplay on Radio 1, 2, XFM all networks and 6 Music.

With his first album being release simultaneously over in the States, Frank’s assault on worldwide domination continues…

"Both uplifting and heartbreaking, these 12 tracks are the sound of Turner sitting down, taking stock and edging steadily further towards greatness. Godspeed, sir." KKKK Kerrang!

“Frank is truly a unique British talent to be cherished and acclaimed with good reason.” 8/10 Rocksound
