Frank Turner unplugged at The Round Chapel
- Text by HUCK HQ
On a crisp autumn afternoon, Huck joined Frank Turner at The Round Chapel in Clapton, East London.
Frank – armed with only his guitar and the booming acoustics of this 19th Century auditorium – gave us a blistering rendition of Sweet Albion Blues, a track off his forthcoming album of rarities, The Third Three Years.

The Third Three Years is out on 24th November on XtraMileRecordings.
