Frank Turner releases The Next Ten Years Triple Vinyl Set, a deep-dive archival collection that looks back on a decade of creativity beyond his core studio albums. A sequel to his earlier First Ten Years release, the 3LP set gathers rare tracks, B-sides, live recordings, covers, collaborations, and alternate versions spanning the eras of Positive Songs For Negative People, Be More Kind, No Man’s Land, and FTHC. Curated by Turner himself, the collection is designed to make the lesser-heard corners of his catalog easy to discover, many appearing on vinyl for the first time.
To mark the release, Turner has shared the focus track “Road Crew,” a tribute to the behind-the-scenes workers who make live music possible. “Road Crew was recorded for the #WeMakeEvents campaign in 2020, and it’s a tribute to the unsung heroes who keep the show on the road, literally,” Turner says. Housed in an elaborate gatefold package with clear vinyl, die-cut artwork, unseen photos, and individually numbered sleeves, The Next Ten Years stands as both a collector’s piece and a heartfelt reflection on the community, persistence, and people that have defined Turner’s journey on and off the stage.
