Musical career
After having featured in Scottish bands Skuobhie Dubh Orchestra and Khartoum Heroes, in 1995 Kenny Anderson launched the Fence record label and began recording albums under the name King Creosote.
King Creosote was one of the original artists to contribute a t-shirt design for the Yellow Bird Project charity initiative, back in 2006. Anderson's design features an accordion, enscribed with the name "FENCE"; a reference to his DIY record label collective.
Anderson founded Fence Records alongside Johnny Lynch, but stepped back from day-to-day running of the label in 2010.

Admiral
by: King CreosoteGirlfriend for you I have fallen
Just a little way in
I'm just a little bit sore
Girlfriend, for you I have spoken out
I've taken a hefty clout
To the jawbone for my sins
For my sins
Girlfriend, it's you I'll scuttle ships for
Make my first mate walk the plank for
Admire the all or nothing
I'm admiral of nothing at all
Nothing at all
Girlfriend, you might not like me much
When I mention such and such
To this old so and so
But you know I
Girlfriend, you've carved a hairline scratch
Into this granite heart
And it's here I falter
Girlfriend, its you I'll scuttle the fleet for
Make my first mate walk the plank for
Admire the all or nothing
I'm admiral of nothing at all
Nothing at all
I'm admiral of nothing at all
