NEW ALBUM \u2018NO MAN\u2019S LAND\u2019- OUT AUGUST 16TH 2019<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Details for a\u00a09 date UK headline tour\u00a0<\/strong>– including two dates at\u00a0London\u2019s Alexandra Palace Theatre <\/strong>on November\u00a030<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0December 3, 2019<\/strong>\u00a0– in support of his forthcoming eighth album,\u00a0\u2018NO MAN\u2019S LAND\u2019<\/strong>\u00a0(out August 16th on Xtra Mile Recordings\/Polydor Records). Produced by\u00a0Catherine Marks and featuring an all-female cast of musicians, \u2018No Man\u2019s Land\u2019 is dedicated to the fascinating stories of women whose incredible lives have all too often been overlooked by dint of their gender. The album is accompanied by a new 13 part podcast series, \u2018Tales From No Man\u2019s Land\u2019 (created in collaboration with Somethin\u2019 Else), which hit #2 on the Apple UK podcast chart upon launch. Tickets for the UK headline tour will go on sale on July 19, with a\u00a0special fan pre-sale via Frank\u2019s store<\/strong>\u00a0–\u00a0https:\/\/store.frank-turner.com\/<\/a><\/u>.<\/div>\n

The tour dates will see Turner put a new twist on his formidable live set up, featuring a solo set followed by an unplugged band performance in seated venues. Speaking about the format, Frank says; \u201cFor this tour, I thought it would be good to give the new album some proper attention, so the first set of mine of the night will be a solo run through some of those songs and stories; once the Souls are up with me, we’re playing around with a slightly more stripped back, thoughtful folk approach to some of the older material, which feels different and powerful. Looking forward to sharing a slightly different show with everyone for this run.\u201d<\/p>\n

The women featured on \u2018No Man\u2019s Land\u2019 come from across wide geographical and historical lines. They include Byzantine princess Kassiani (The Hymn of Kassiani), Egyptian feminist activist Huda Sha’arawi (The Lioness), and Resusci Anne (Rescue Annie) an apocryphal drowned virgin whose face was used as the model for the medical CPR mannequin across the world. There\u2019s the serial killer from the Deep South who plucked her victims from lonely hearts pages (Nannie Doss), the jazz-obsessed heiress who fought for the Free French (Nica Rothschild) and a rowdy coach house landlady from 17th century Camden Town accused of witchcraft (Jinny Bingham).<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s bringing together my two main interests in life, which have always been separate from each other – history and songwriting,\u201d explains Turner, who can be found seeking out long-forgotten historical sites on self-guided psychogeographical strolls when he\u2019s not packing out arenas or headlining festivals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
