Frank Turner to follow up 9th album release with UK tour dates

Frank Turner returns with his 9th studio album “FTHC” and in his words, he will ‘continue to play every bedroom, bar and bunker stop as he continues to defy the odds!’

A lot has already been written about Frank’s new album, the guest appearances from Muse, Nine Inch Nails, Biffy Clyro and more, and whether he still has it. The previously released lead single “The Gathering” only gives a small insight into the new direction of the record. We’ve heard some, and we can say it’s a confident tour-de-force and will certainly cause an awful lot more conversation from fans and critics alike! 

In support of his forthcoming album, Frank will be doing a unique tour playing all 39 English historic counties, plus 9 Districts of Scotland, 8 counties in Wales, 6 in N. Ireland and 8 counties in Ireland. The artist said his ambition is to reach all of his fans with his new record and play where most others will not go. 

Frank has chosen The Forum in Bath for his Somerset date. The beautiful art-deco building gave Frank one of his last shows from his previous album tour, just prior to lockdown.

A spokesperson for the Forum said: “The venue remains a firm favorite with artists and fans a like. It will also be our first show in this historic venue. An opportunity we’re truly honoured and excited about being given!”
