Introducing The Delgados
The Delgados

Alun Woodward (Guitar/vocals) Emma Pollock (guitar vocals), Stewart Henderson (bass) and Paul Savage (drums). Behind them is eight years of ambition, friendship, argument and musical experiments. The group of friends started a record company called Chemikal Underground that became one of the original "helping hands" for other Scottish bands such as Mogwai & Arab Strap

In the early years the band started out by making beautifully skewed'n'dreamy folk-pop, they made an album called The Great Eastern, produced by Dave Friddman (Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev & Dot Allison). Time passed and the band were asked to provide a live soundtrack for a 'dark' art show by Joe Coleman, this became the first time the band wrote as a 4 piece without relying on Alun & Emma's lyrics to move the audience.

This automatically made the band start work on a new album first collaborating as a group and later adding vocals, The outcome is the album Hate an album full of strummed guitar, piano & strings. After Hate was finished the band took the album back over to Dave Fridmann, on most of the tracks he left them alone, as their was nothing he could add.

Now signed to Mantra Recordings The Delagdos plan to release Coming in From The Cold on the 30th of September & is the first single to be released off the album Hate, Hate will be released on the 14th of October.
