Sons and Daughters are a rock band from Glasgow, Scotland.
Biography
Conceived while on tour with Arab Strap in 2001, Sons and Daughters was initially Adele Bethel's creation. The band's line-up at first comprised Bethel, David Gow and Ailidh Lennon, and the band began recording.
After the later addition of Scott Paterson as a second vocalist, the band played a number of successful concerts. Their debut release, the twenty-five-minute-long Love the Cup was financed by the band and initially released on Ba Da Bing Records label in 2003, and later re-released when Sons and Daughters signed to Domino Records in 2004.
Their second album, The Repulsion Box was released in June 2005. In February 2006 the band were invited to tour with Morrissey on the first leg of his UK tour. Their third album, This Gift, produced by Bernard Butler, was released on 28 January 2008.
After a few years of relative inactivity the band released a free download, Silver Spell, accompanied by a trailer for their new album, "Mirror Mirror", which was released on 13 June 2011.
