Alex Turner is an English musician, singer and songwriter. He is the lead vocalist, guitarist and principal songwriter of the English indie rock band Arctic Monkeys. Turner has also recorded with a side-project called The Last Shadow Puppets and as a solo artist.
Turner spent most of his teenage years listening to rap artists such as Roots Manuva. His attentions later turned to guitar music following the breakthrough of The Strokes and The Libertines. Turner also admired The Beatles and aspired to be like them. Turner's parents bought him his first guitar for Christmas 2001. Following sixth form college, where he studied at Barnsley, his parents reluctantly agreed to let him defer university for one year to pursue his musical ambitions. During this time he worked as a barman at the Sheffield venue, The Boardwalk.
Arctic Monkeys signed to the independent label Domino Records after a bidding war in 2005. Its first album Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, released in early 2006, became the fastest-selling debut album in British music history. The band has since released four more albums: Favourite Worst Nightmare, Humbug, Suck It and See and AM all reaching No. 1 in the UK album charts.
