Bowling for Soup

The Sleeping Souls

Frank Turner

Australia, get set to be bowled over in 2026, with beloved UK folk punk act **FRANK TURNER & THE SLEEPING SOULS** joining forces with Texan pop punk mainstays **BOWLING FOR SOUP** for a monumental co-headline Australian tour next May.  
  
Commencing the Bowl My Bones tour festivities on Friday 1 May on the Sunshine Coast, **FRANK TURNER & THE SLEEPING SOULS** and **BOWLING FOR SOUP** will roll through Brisbane, Sydney, Newcastle, Melbourne, Frankston and Adelaide, before concluding on Monday 11 May in Fremantle.  
  
When a band can make it feel like a summer party anywhere they go, you know you're in for a good time. And with over three decades in their wake as a band, **BOWLING FOR SOUP**, aka the self-proclaimed "9th greatest pop punk band in history", have left an indelible mark on their genre and pop culture in general, roaring out of Texas in 1994 and never looking back. Eleven studio albums, including two Silver and Gold certified LPs? Yes. Appearances on multiple high-profile soundtracks, including a Disney Channel theme song staple? You bet. Endless amounts of humour, high-octane performances and earworm hits that you'll still know the lyrics to decades after their release? Suffice to say, **BOWLING FOR SOUP** are here for a good time and a long time, and are definitely not slowing down anytime soon.  
  
Helmed by the prolific titular **FRANK TURNER** himself, **FRANK TURNER & THE SLEEPING SOULS** have been weaving magic together since the mid-2000s. Surrounding **TURNER**'s pivot to solo artist terrain after his earlier career fronting post-hardcore act Million Dead, **FRANK TURNER & THE SLEEPING SOULS** have gone on to record and perform for decades, with **TURNER** now also in command of ten solo studio albums, 3000+ live shows, a #1 album courtesy of 2022's _FTHC_, millions of global album sales, and live stints around the world spanning all continents, a "50 States in 50 days tour" across North America, performing at practically every UK venue imaginable, and even an appearance as part of the 2012 London Olympics opening ceremony.  
  
Bringing two prolific live artists under one roof for a run of monumental shows in 2026, don't miss your chance to roll them bones and revel in some endlessly good vibes with both **FRANK TURNER & THE SLEEPING SOULS** and **BOWLING FOR SOUP** next May.
