Fatherson are a four piece Scottish band based in Glasgow and formed in Kilmarnock. They have been making waves in the Scottish music scene following a string of supports with bands such as Frightened Rabbit, Panic! at the Disco, Feeder, Twin Atlantic and Idlewild. ==Career== Fatherson have released two singles. "Hometown", through King Tuts Recordings, and in 2012 "First Born". Following the inclusion of a song on BBC Radio 1's Introducing playlist, the band performed on the BBC Introducing stage at T in the Park where their set was aired on BBC Two. Gaining experience through further festival appearances during the summer culminated in a trip to America for an industry showcase, laying the foundations there for the future. Fatherson completed 2012 with their biggest headline tour to date playing venues such as The Garage in Glasgow, the Liquid Rooms in Edinburgh and The Ironworks in Inverness. In 2013, in-between recording their debut album, the band played around the country including appearances at The Great Escape in Brighton, This Is Fake DIY at The Old Blue Last in London, Stag & Dagger at the ABC 1 in Glasgow and the Main Stage at Rockness. In 2014, the band released their debut album ''I Am an Island'' through a record label set up by their management. The band and label worked to together to independently finance and release the record without the standard record company structure. The release was a success and went to No.11 in the Scottish Album Chart, Top 40 UK Indie charts and peaked at No.5 on the iTunes alternative chart. The first single "I Like Not Knowing" received airplay throughout BBC Radio 1 with support from DJs such as Greg James, Zane Lowe, Huw Stephens and Ally McCrae. The band then toured throughout the UK pulling their biggest audiences to date, culminating in a sold out show at Glasgow's Arches. Fatherson played at festivals throughout the UK and performed again at T in the Park, this time at King Tut's Tent. The band has embarked on a UK and European tour supporting We Were Promised Jetpacks and released a new single "Mine For Me" on 21 July 2014. As confirmed at their performance at the Tartan Heart Festival in August, 2015, they are currently producing their second studio album. They are supporting the synth-pop trio PRIDES on their UK Headline Tour in October and November 2015. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fatherson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
