Submitted: "Frank Turner has signed to Epitaph Records for a worldwide deal whilst remaining on independent label Xtra Mile Recordings for the UK and Ireland , and plans are underway to release his third studio album, Poetry of the Deed, in September."
"Frank Turner's music is a revelation to me," says Gurewitz. "I can't stop listening to it. It's a real privilege to get out there and help Xtra Mile spread the Frank Turner gospel."
The young singer-songwriter announced the news via Twitter and MySpace stating, "It’s official: though I’m happily staying with Xtra Mile in the UK, l signed with Epitaph for the world. Fuck yes!!"
"It’s been a little frustrating, the last year or two, trying to figure out the best way to get my stuff released properly in Europe and the USA," says Turner. "I never imagined that it’d be Epitaph who would be releasing stuff though, as I thought they were out of my league. Now I feel like a nerd who just laid the head cheerleader. Being on Epitaph is the fucking bomb. And to top it all, I’ve been asked out on tour with one of the bands who introduced a whole generation of kids, myself included, to the illicit joys of punk rock. I have, essentially, peed myself. It’s going to be a good year!"
