Exclusive: Frank Turner Goes Behind The Scenes on ‘Packing For Tour’

After playing the massive Reading and Leeds festivals this weekend in the UK, punk-folk madman Frank Turner will be returning to the States this fall for a massive, 42-date headlining tour with his band The Sleeping Souls, in support of his critically lauded new album Tape Deck Heart. Kicking off October 4 at Cleveland’s Beachland Ballroom, the Fall run will criss-cross the U.S. to end on November 30 at Boston’s iconic House of Blues, giving Turner a chance to reach more fans in more cities following his dash through the U.S. this summer. 

While fans all over can witness Frank’s greatness onstage, it’s not often we get the chance to go behind the scenes with a rocker as they’re prepping for an upcoming tour. That’s just what we did with the following Crave-exclusive clip, however, as Mr. Turner gives us a run down of the essentials he takes along on his long treks away from home.

 

Pick up Tape Deck Heart on iTunes now! Additionally, fans of UK rockers Biffy Clyro will be excited to learn that Turner will be covering the band’s “Who’s Got A Match” on his forthcoming Losing Days EP which will also include the songs “Hits & Mrs” and “Longing For The Day”. For more info, keep up on Frank Turner’s official site – also follow him on Facebook and Twitter.
