Sharp as a butcher’s blade, dripping with the anger of a betrayed generation, “Caught Up In The Scrape” is a rousing punk-rock anthem for our times.

Best known as Frank Turner’s loyal bandmates and fellow road warriors having played alongside the punk icon for over a decade, Tarrant Anderson (bass), Matt Nasir (piano), Callum Green (drums), Ben Lloyd (guitar) and Frank’s guitar tech Cahir O’Doherty (Fighting With Wire, Jetplane Landing and currently New Pagans) on vocals have now branched out with their own independent project.

Both “Caught In The Scrape” and “Liar/Lover” are the first fruits in a planned string of releases due to emerge from the band throughout 2023, with a debut LP also in the pipeline for later this year.

The Sleeping Souls have toured with punk-icon Frank Turner since 2006. They have recorded six studio albums with the artist, including 2022 #1 ‘FTHC’, headlined Wembley Arena, performed at the 2012 London Olympics and toured the world many times over.

New single, “Caught Up In The Scrape” arrives as the band gear up to return to the road as Frank’s band this month, with a full UK tour kicking off in Falmouth on 20 January 2023. Full dates here.
