Franz Ferdinand
Franz Ferdinand formed in 2002, and rapidly ascended from throwing parties in condemned Glasgow buildings to changing the face of the British music scene. Their 2004 eponymous debut album and singles such as Take Me Out fired them to the forefront of the global stage, where they have remained, selling over 10 million records and winning the Mercury Prize and several Brits. A love of a big riff and a fresh, unfading, forward-facing outlook defines all of their records, including You Could Have It So Much Better, Tonight: Franz Ferdinand, Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action, Always Ascending, and 2022 greatest hits album Hits To The Head.
Franz Ferdinand are Alex Kapranos, Bob Hardy, Julian Corrie, Dino Bardot, and Audrey Tait: an era-defining band continuing their unquestionably living legacy. Their sixth studio album The Human Fear was recorded at AYR studios in Scotland and produced with Mark Ralph. It is OUT NOW.
