For the uninitiated Glasvegas are James Allan (vocals), Rab Allan (lead guitar), Paul Donoghue (bass guitar).
The band received universal critical acclaim for their self titled 2008 platinum selling debut album "Glasvegas" which reached No.2 in the album charts and was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize a year later. Furthermore less than three months later the band released a six track Christmas themed EP entitled “A Snowflake Fell And It felt Like A Kiss”. This EP was produced and recorded in a remote castle in the Transylvanian mountains of Romania and was well received by fans and critics alike.
After two world tours, festival appearances all around the globe and an unprecedented seven tours of North America, their sophomore long player follow up "EUPHORIC /// HEARTBREAK \\\" was released on the 4th April 2011. A departure from their first album; it polarised fans and critics alike, reaching the Top 10 in the UK and No.1 in Sweden. Produced by Flood it was heavily influenced by the bands six month stay in Santa Monica, California.
Leaving one major label for another Glasvegas struck a one album deal with music giants BMG and in September 2013 "Later…When The TV Turns To Static" saw the light of day becoming the bands third official studio album. Although not as commercially successful as their first two albums it was well received by fans and critics alike.
One could argue Glasvegas should need no introduction. One of the most successful Scottish musical exports in recent times, globally known for their unique sound and powerful lyrical content, they are a band that have never compromised; never conformed; commanding respect from their peers and critics alike and enjoy a fiercely loyal worldwide fan base. What is also clear is that Glasvegas are forging an undeniable legacy in terms of how many up-and-coming Scottish bands and even some established ones (who shall remain nameless) have been influenced by Glasvegas…especially Allan's emotive Glaswegian vocal delivery.
In 2021 Glasvegas released their fourth studio album "Godspeed" across all digital platforms and in 2022 the band (due to demand) will release the album globally on Heavyweight Vinyl.
This new album will ensure the Glasvegas legacy continues…
