The Prize
Frank Turner is an internationally successful award-winning folk-punk songwriter. His 3,000th show recently took place at the iconic Alexandra Palace in February earlier this year – an epic sold-out show with more than ten thousand fans. Afterwards, Frank signed one of the drumskins used by his band The Sleeping Souls which is now up for grabs by entering this competition.

What have our supported musicians said about Help Musicians?
"Support from Help Musicians allows people to take logical career steps. We are proof that a little bit of help can go a long way. With our last record for example, it went from ‘I don’t know how we’re going to release this record’ to ‘we have serious momentum behind it, a top ten hit in Scotland and have been nominated for Scottish Album of the Year’." Brownbear, singer-songwriter.
"Help Musicians feels like this beautiful safety net. If my health deteriorates, I know who to phone for help, whether it’s counselling or financial support. I would say they have probably heard it all, the worst of the worst, but they also know from experience that small things can have a massive impact on being a musician.” - Constant Follower, singer-songwriter.
