Fatherson + Fright Years

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of their acclaimed second album Open Book, Fatherson announce three special UK shows in Glasgow, Manchester and London. Formed in Kilmarnock, Scotland, Fatherson immediately captured hearts with their raw, honest alternative-rock sound. Attend any Fatherson gig and you’ll find a room echo with lyrics being sung back en masse by adoring fans. Renowned for their encapsulating live performances, they have toured alongside the likes of Lewis Capaldi on EU arena dates and at London’s Wembley Arena, as well as performing with Frightened Rabbit, Biffy Clyro, Idlewild, Augustines, Enter Shikari, Amber Run, Twin Atlantic, and more. Fatherson’s catalogue spans four studio albums. Inspired by Scottish stoicism as much as their own personal turmoil, debut album I Am an Island and its 2016 follow-up Open Book were masterclasses in full-throttle rock songwriting. Their third record, Sum of All Your Parts (2018), marked a shift toward a more experimental, performance-led approach. While most recently, 2022’s Normal Fears introduced a more groove-driven and introspective palette, reflecting a fresh creative direction while retaining the emotional honesty at the core of their sound.
