12th May 2008 | by Aidan Williamson

Seeking to further to good message after scoring a number five position in the U.K indie-chart during March with second album "Love, Ire & Song", Frank Turner has lined up a new single and a thirty date tour to go alongside it.

Turner started the tour at the beginning of this month as support for The Holloways, come June though, he'll be embarking upon reams of festival shows which will see him through to the end of August, and geographically will see him head as far as Belgium too.

Single, "Reasons Not To Be An Idiot" will be available on June 23 via Xtra Mile Recordings.
