It is almost a decade since Frank Turner went solo following the demise of Million Dead, the hardcore quartet he fronted. In that time, he has been on a constant upward curve, its momentum propelled forward by a mixture of Turner’s force of will and his effortless craft of song. Each record now brings with it new landmarks for the 32-year-old from Hampshire. His latest release, last year’s Tape Deck Heart, has ushered in a new level of success. This ultra-talented singer/songwriter inhabits bold new territory, an ambitious artist unrestricted by rules or expectations.
