Bio:

In 2010 Junior Turner released a national single for BBC Children in Need. He recorded and released a cover version of the world famous "The Impossible Dream"
Whilst promoting his BBC single he had handed out demo recordings including a self penned track called "Say Goodbye". In due course he received a phone call from war veteran's charity "Help for Heroes" co founder Bryn Parry asking if they could use this song for their charity.
In April 2011 Junior Turner released Say Goodbye in support of Help for Heroes.
In 2012 he began to get a lot more airplay and worldwide following the independent release of his single 'Loveblind featuring Jess Wood'. This seemed to strike a chord with Radio DJ's and music personnel around the world.
He then went on to follow that up by releasing a further independent release this time a song titled 'Hurt featuring Robbie Williams guitarist Neil Taylor'.This again got mass critical acclaim given Neil Taylor's inclusion on the track. This again helped to raise Turner's profile.
In November 2012 he released his eagerly anticipated 'critically acclaimed' debut album 'Under Scrutiny'.
In 2013 he followed it up with the release of 'Better Day' which has had rave reviews both here in the UK & in the USA. It went to No.1 in the official newcomers/unsigned chart in Austin, Texas USA as well as a number of weeks at Number 1 in New Jersey, USA.
After taking a small break to write and record new material Junior released a power ballad titled 'Save me'. This topped several state radio charts in the USA & in April 2014 Junior picked up 'Best Pop Song' at the prestigious awards ceremony for 'the indie music channel' as well as 2 award in Los Angeles in December 2014 at the Akademia Music Awards.
In 2015 Junior Turner went on to win his 2nd award in Hollywood picking up 'Best music video' for his song 'Save Me' & late 2015 he picked up 'Best pop song 2015' for 'Save me' at the Josie Show Music awards in Nashville USA
At the 2015 USA radio music awards voted for by USA radio presenters Junior Turner picked up both 'Best pop artist 2015' and 'Best pop song 2015' for 'Save Me'
His music video's too are now being broadcasted on national USA tv and in several other countries which have picked up on the track which for an independent artist is somewhat amazing.
In his career Junior Turner has worked with some of the UK and worlds finest musicians and producers for who he is held in high regard with.
