Admiral Fallow

Admiral Fallow (Louis Abbott, Kevin Brolly, Phil Hague, Sarah Hayes and Joe Rattray) released their much-beloved debut album Boots Met My Face in 2011, its widely-acclaimed successor Tree Bursts In Snow the following year, an extraordinary third record, Tiny Rewards, in 2015, and their captivating fourth studio album, The Idea of You, in 2021.

This entrancing collection of songs – generously melodic, confidently executed and festooned with intricacies – was warmly praised by Mojo (\*\*\*\*), The Skinny (\*\*\*\*) and Uncut Magazine (“…beguiling melodic uplift”). Three singles from the record, Sleepwalking, Dragonfly and Tuesday Grey, received airplay on BBC 6 Music and BBC Radio Scotland. Admiral Fallow continue their partnership with legendary Glasgow label Chemikal Underground, with news of their fifth record coming in 2025.

Admiral Fallow’s recent live appearances include a UK tour, numerous festival appearances and four nights supporting The Proclaimers at their Back In The Big Top summer shows. In winter 2023 the band performed two special anniversary gigs at Glasgow’s legendary King Tut’s, to celebrate the vinyl re-issue of their debut album on their own label, First Name Unknown.

Over their 18 years together, Admiral Fallow have taken their music around the world, touring the UK, Europe, North America and Australia.
