Kicking off Sheer’s Swindon gigs in the new year is Wessex boy, hardcore king turned international voice-of-a-generation and Xtra Mile signed, Frank Turner.
Frank made his name performing hundreds of shows in 200-capacity venues up and down the country including a number of Swindon performances, before migrating to theatres, festivals and stadiums across the UK, and around the world.
One of the most notable early shows was at the celebrated Victoria venue in Swindon, which was recorded by then landlord, David Young. This recording made its way to Frank’s label, and was subsequently released when the label re-issued a 10 year anniversary deluxe version of his debut album Sleep is for The Week last year.
Sheer Music are finally bringing this belated solo show to Swindon, back to the very venue Sheer Music first met Frank in 2003 when Frank performed in his punk band, Million Dead.
Supporting Frank in January will be:
Mike Barham - 7.30 to 8pm
Sean McGowen - 8.10pm to 8.55pm
Frank Turner hits the stage from 9.15 to 10.45
