Both places are refected in his songs, which frequently move between these two different worlds, linked through his keen observations and ruminations. His music expresses a duality too, sliding between the earthly and the ethereal, the miraculous and the mundane, the pure and profane. And it's present in the title of his thirteenth and latest album, Terrible Good. Turner loves the way the phrase's meaning gets twisted by using \"a negative out of context with the positive.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"New York's hidden gem.\" New York Magazine \u003cbr\u003e\"Easily one of the most important Irish artists of the last twenty years.\" The Irish Times \u003cbr\u003e\"Turner has created the fnest body of work in contemporary Irish music, bar none.\" The Sunday Times\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTour Dates:\u003cbr\u003e07 July The Sugar Club - Dublin\u003cbr\u003e06 August Levis Corner House - Cork With special guest Tony Shanahan, Patti \u003cbr\u003eSmith's Bassist and Musical Director\u003cbr\u003eCoverage in Hot Press, Irish Times, RNR, Folkradio UK\u003cbr\u003eRadio support from BBC Radio 2 Mark Radcliffe\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLP Tracks: Where It Should Be \/ Set a Few Things Up \/ Love Never Fails \/ Love of Angels \/ Stephen \/ Rocket Man \/ Don’t Get Too Fallen \/ Australia \/ More \/ Tommy and Timmy\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"STORYSOUND RECORDS L","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41761381220508,"sku":"161044LP","price":18.72,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/1_5c1538f1-f29d-4069-8b7e-26cf844c931c.jpg?v=1657637234","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/pierce-turner-terrible-good-1","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
