Undefeated

Undefeated is the tenth studio album by English singer-songwriter Frank Turner. It was released on 3 May 2024 through Xtra Mile Recordings. Turner wrote, recorded and produced Undefeated all by himself in his home studio on Mersea Island, only backed by his long-time band The Sleeping Souls: Ben Lloyd (guitar), Tarrant Anderson (bass), Callum Green (drums) and Matt Nasir (piano). It is also the first album of his without a big label involved in over a decade. The artist refers to the album as his "first back home with a global independent label setup" and celebrates the freedom of working as an "independent artist". In a statement, Turner explained that there are "no clichés" about the album, which might be "liberating" to him but at the same time feels like having a "duty to justify writing and releasing" a tenth album. Undefeated was inspired by long-time influences, including Black Flag, Counting Crows, Descendents, The Pogues, Elvis Costello, and Billy Bragg.
