England Keep My Bones is the fourth studio album by London-based singer-songwriter Frank Turner, released on June 6, 2011 in the UK and June 7, 2011 worldwide. The album will be released on Xtra Mile Recordings in the UK and Epitaph Records worldwide.[5] The album was produced and mixed by Tristan Ivemy, who had previously mixed the Rock & Roll EP, Campfire Punkrock EP and the album Love, Ire and Song.
The title "England Keep My Bones" is taken from Shakespeare's The Life and Death of King John.[6][7] Album track "I Am Disappeared" was prematurely released through Xtra Mile Recordings on March 29, 2011 and uploaded to YouTube on the same date. "Peggy Sang the Blues", written in tribute to Turner's grandmother, Peggy, was the first single to be released from the album on April 25, 2011. Frank revealed on his May 2010 live tour that Franz Nicolay features on the song "Wessex Boy" and one other song on the album. As well as the iTunes version of the album having 3 additional acoustic tracks it also contains music videos for "I Still Believe" and "Peggy Sang The Blues" and a digital booklet.
