Frank Turner has released a new single, The Gathering.
Produced by Rich Costey, the rowdy offering celebrates the return of live music over glam-rock guitar licks and thundering drums from Muse's Dom Howard. Jason Isbell also contributes a solo to the track. The singer-songwriter said:
"It's about that moment when you come together in a room full of people, and you lean on a stranger and sing along with the chorus and get the words wrong."
It marks Turner's first new material under his own steam in almost two years, and comes with news of nine summer shows headlined by Turner with Xtra Mile Recordings artists such as Skinny Lister, Johnny Lloyd, Pet Needs, Ducking Punches, Non Canon, Deux Furieuses, Berries, Guise, and Semantics. Tickets for the 'Gatherings' are on sale now.
Turner explained: "At a time when the pandemic has wreaked havoc all across the live music industry, I feel like it's important to get back to the basics - playing live music to entertain a crowd. This summer, with Xtra Mile and friends, I'm taking the punk approach - do it yourself, find a way. I can't wait."
In addition to those shows, Turner and the Sleeping Souls will headline the Friday Night at Black Deer festival in June, Dreamland Margate's Summer Series in July, and Beautiful Days in August.
