Frank Turner.

Best get used to hearing that name.

Formerly of much-loved British post-hardcore outfit Million Dead, over the past few years Frank Turner has been busy making a considerable name for himself bringing an accessible blend of folk/punk to the fringes of the mainstream.

Frank's infectiously successful albums have seen him making various major radio playlists, signing to Epitaph, joining the Revival Tour and playing strings of sold out dates both in the UK and internationally. All well and good, but last week saw Frank's meteroic rise to fame reach its zenith- an interview with Test Card.

We caught up with Frank at the Glasgow date of said sold-out tour and discussed: success, the (ahem) "scene", politics (ahem), Spandau Ballet and a bunch of stuff in between...

Catch the interview on Test Card this week!
