#331 Frank Turner (Solo Artist)

Welcome to Life In The Stocks Episode 331. This is Frank Turner's third official appearance on the podcast.

Here, we break down Frank's recording output now that he’s ten albums in, and dissect all the peaks and valleys of his solo career and how the music industry has evolved during that time, including the rise and infiltration of social media.

We also talk about dealing with negative energy online, using your platform as a successful artist to affect positive change, how working with younger bands like Pet Needs and The Meffs has invigorated Frank as a songwriter, and what it's like to be in a band that doesn’t fit in with any larger musical movement or scene. 

We also throw in some chat about our mutual friend Fat Mike and how Frank recently became buddies with Kiefer Sutherland, and why I believe Frank should write his autobiography already.

Thank you, as always, to my great friend Francis for coming on.
