Alex Kapranos Author & Editor

Alex Kapranos is the singer and guitarist of Franz Ferdinand. Before the success of the band, he spent over a decade jumping between stints as a chef, wine waiter, kitchen porter, delivery driver, welder, promoter, college lecturer and doley layabout: anything to generate the cash that his bands didn’t.

Andrew Knowles is touring drummer and keyboards player with the band, and a graduate of the Glasgow School of Art.
