Before interviewing Frank Turner, I had seen him play solo a handful of times. The last time was in the early afternoon in a tent at a folk festival, where he lazed limply in the throes of a vicious hangover between songs. But even in that miserable state, he was fully animated and smiling during his songs. I wasn’t sure what to expect when I sat down with him in the back of his bus on his first headlining North American tour. We sat down and proceeded to have a wonderful talk about everything from our mutual love of John K. Samson to high school exams. He was as friendly and welcoming as you would expect from a guy who pens catchy songs that invite the entire audience to sing along.
