My Take
What I love about Frank Turner is the gap between where he started and how he plays. Born in Manama, Bahrain, in 1981 and educated at Eton, he could have been the picture of polish, yet he screamed through the post-hardcore band Million Dead before going solo into raw acoustic folk-punk. His songs speak plainly about human clumsiness and the will to keep going, and they land like a hand on the back. He has built his career through a relentless number of live shows, sweating it out night after night. I deeply trust musicians who earn their place on stage like that.
