When two genre-defining acts collide, you don’t just get a tour—you get an event. In 2026, Frank Turner & The Sleeping Souls and Bowling For Soup are joining forces for the Bowling My Bones Australian tour, a co-headline run that promises equal parts heart, humour, and high-energy chaos.
From intimate, fist-in-the-air singalongs to full-blown pop punk party anthems, both bands have built their reputations on connection—turning every stage into something closer to a shared experience than a performance. Now, with a run of dates stretching across the country and a grand finale locked in for Fremantle, Australian fans are set to witness a pairing that feels as natural as it does long overdue.
We caught up with Frank to talk about the tour, the pressures of life on the road, the ever-evolving process of song writing, and his ongoing support for grassroots music and independent venues through his Lost Evenings Festival series.
