English singer-songwriter Frank Turner will play four different shows at North London’s Roundhouse for the fourth edition of his ‘Lost Evenings’ Festival. The shows will take place from Thursday, September 16th to Sunday, September 19th. The event will see other rooms – such as the building’s rooms, bars and outdoor spaces – utilised for additional talks and performances, which are presented under the name of ‘Last Minutes’.
The first night Turner will perform acoustically with Matt Nasir, supported by Grace Petrie and Emily Barker. During the second performance, the singer will present material from his three albums as well as some new songs, backed up by Jamie Lenman and PET NEEDS. On the Saturday show, Turner will celebrate the 10th anniversary of his fourth album ‘England Keep My Bones’, and the opening acts will be Nova Twins and The Lottery Winners. The last show will be a showcase of the songwriter’s greatest hits, with support from Skinny Lister and Guise.
“After a thoroughly miserable year for live music – not least having to cancel the Berlin Lost Evenings event last year – I’m ecstatic to say we’re bringing the festival back to where it started, at the Roundhouse London in Camden Town.”, the artist says. “It’s going to be a family affair – old friends (Grace, Jamie, Skinny Lister) and new (Nova Twins, Lottery Winners, Pet Needs), and just a huge celebration of what we all missed lately – getting together for a singalong.”
The Nick Alexander Stage – named after Turner’s longtime friend and merchandiser who was killed during the Bataclan terrorist attacks in 2016 – will be running non stop across these four days. Last year’s event was supposed to take place in Berlin but was cancelled due to the pandemic. More information on the line-up and tickets can be found here.
