15-11 Frank Turner op europese toernee met nieuwe Single

Frank Turner Announces New Single “If Ever I Stray”

European Tour Confirmed For November/December

Hot on the heels of his appearances at numerous European festivals including Pukkelpop and Lowlands this August, Frank Turner will release his rabble rousing anthem, ‘If Ever I Stray’ on 29^th August through Epitaph Records/Xtra Mile.

As his career soars further to the stars this is a wonderful ode to his friends and loved ones for the support they continue to show him on this incredible journey.
Frank says: “If Ever I Stray was one of the last songs written for the album and it came together really fast, as the best songs do; it’s a song about realising that you’re not an island, and that you should be grateful for the help you get in life.”
And with the instantly catchy refrain; “But if ever I stray from the path I follow. Take me down to the English Channel. Throw me in where the water is shallow, and drag me on back to shore”believe us when we say you’ll be singing this joyfully all summer long.

‘If Ever I Stray’ – backed by brand new song ‘Sailor’s Boots’ – is the second single to be lifted from the album ‘England Keep My Bones’ which came out in June of this year. The single has been complimented by a recently released video which can be viewed here. The album has been applauded by all sections of the press garnering 4/5 in Q (UK), 8/10 in NME (UK), 9/10 on Focus.de, 8/10 in Classic Rock (DE), 82/100 in Up Magazine (NL), 85/100 in Rockzone (ES) and 5/5 on Kulturbloggen.com (SWE) to name a few and was named as one of the “Top Ten Albums of the Month” in Uncle Sally*s magazine (DE).
