Frank Turner and NOBRO

Frank Turner, born in Bahrain and educated at Eton, shifted from hardcore band Million Dead to a folk-punk solo career. Known for hit albums like "Tape Deck Heart" and "Be More Kind," he draws comparisons to Bruce Springsteen and Billy Bragg. Turner collaborates with artists like Jon Snodgrass and released the podcast "Tales from No Man's Land" featuring stories of historical women. His music spans punk, pop, and folk, marked by sharp lyrics and a passionate style. Turner remains an influential voice in British music.

Montreal's NOBRO, a new-age punk band, released their debut album "Set Your Pussy Free," a caustic, party-punk celebration. Shortlisted for a 2024 POLARIS Prize and nominated for a 2025 JUNO, the album embodies defiant liberation. Fronted by Kathryn McCaughey and Karolane Carbonneau, NOBRO is about risk-taking and empowerment in a tough world.
