He captured the crowd with songs like "Thatcher Fucked the Kids", "Nashville Tennessee" and "Ballad of me and My Friends". For the first time ever, at the end of the gig I bought his first full length album, ...

Sleep Is For The Week - Frank Turner

Sleep Is for the Week is the debut album by Frank Turner , the former lead-singer of punk rock band Million Dead, and released on January 15th 2007 via Xtra Mile Recordings. Those that know of Million Dead, or even those who don t, would know that the term punk was just what they were - fast, distorted angst, but now frontman Frank has returned on his own in a style best suited as folk with an acoustic guitar and a stunning ability for song-writing. The 13 tracks on show never have a weak spot or show an achilles heel. In the opening track "The Real Damage" Frank sings about the experience of the morning after a heavy night before.
