It was a perfect show, and a great document of a certain place in time and in my career. “
No Man’s Land, Turner’s fourth consecutive UK Top 3 album, was produced by Catherine Marks (The Big Moon, Wolf Alice, Foals) and features an all-female cast of musicians. Turner launched the album alongside his successful 13-part podcast series, Tales From No Man’s Land. This is dedicated to the vital stories of women whose lives have all too often been overlooked by dint of their gender. “It’s bringing together my two main interests in life, which have always been separate from each other – history and songwriting,” explains Turner.
