The raw, otherworldly pop-anthems of British-born, Australian-raised artist Turner have filled the digital shelves, with the release of his first full-length LP “Ghosts”. Turner’s unique blend of pop, acoustic and folk elements are rudimentary to the creation of haunting, emotionally arresting vocals and succinct lyrics, both of which are a beautiful shot at exploring the trials and turmoil of humanity.

The Turner stories are a thing of 'heart on your sleeve' honesty. A melting pot of rock, pop and acoustic overlays, the soundscape underscoring Turner’s music is a unique tapestry of colour, rhythm and mood-altering intensity. The album, produced by Brisbane’s Caleb James (Skipping Girl Vinegar, Rhubarb) is sophisticated and polished, but still pays homage to low-fi minimalist guitar from generations passed. The intricacies of ‘Ghosts’ are a testament to Turner’s true ingenuity, the final product forming a representation of rare and special musical gems; the kind not easily forgotten.
