Watch: Frank Turner On NPR’s Tiny Desk Concerts

July 18th, 2013

What’s better than a Frank Turner acoustic session to watch while you enjoy your Thursday lunch break? That’s right, nothing. Frank Turner recently stopped by NPR’s DC offices to perform his hit single, “Recovery,” and two other cuts for their Tiny Desk Concert series.

Follow the jump to watch the performance + subsequent interview, and to see a list of North American cities that Turner and his backing band, The Sleeping Souls, will be passing through for an upcoming fall headlining tour. If you haven’t already done it, we highly suggest going out and buying Tape Deck Heart, seeing as how since its release this past April, the album has found its way into many of our hearts and personal record collections.
