Alex Turner Quote

Someone asked me what the key to being a good frontman was, and I think having a sense of humor about it is pretty near the top of that list. It's a very strange place to be in, and I don't take that role too seriously.

Alexander David Turner (born 6 January 1986) is an English musician. He is the frontman and lead singer-songwriter of the rock band Arctic Monkeys. Turner is known for his lyricism ranging from kitchen sink realism to surrealist wordplay, which has been praised by music critics and the public. All but one of Turner's studio albums have topped the UK Albums Chart. He has won seven Brit Awards, an Ivor Novello Award, and a Mercury Prize among other accolades.
When Turner was 15, he and three friends formed Arctic Monkeys in 2002. Their debut album, Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not (2006), became the fastest-selling debut album in British history and, along with the band's fifth studio album AM (2013), appeared on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time and other listicles. The band has experimented with desert rock, indie pop, R&B, and lounge music. He also co-founded The Last Shadow Puppets with Miles Kane in 2007, who have released two orchestral pop albums: The Age of the Understatement (2008) and Everything You've Come to Expect (2016).
Turner provided an acoustic soundtrack for the feature film Submarine (2010), which additionally served as his solo debut extended play (EP). He co-wrote and co-produced Alexandra Savior's debut album Belladonna of Sadness (2017).
