Description

Mammoth Penguins and Broken Chanter are back on tour celebrating the release of their albums!

Mammoth Penguins
Mammoth Penguins are a 3-piece indie powerhouse, showcasing the songwriting and vocal talents of Emma Kupa (Standard Fare) backed up by the noisiest rhythm section in indie pop.
May 2024 sees the release of their fourth album Here on Fika Recordings. After 2019?s big, bold and confident There?s No Fight We Can?t Both Win, and the initial shock of the global pandemic cancelling a trip to SXSW in 2020, the band returned to the studio in the summer of 2021 to start recording.
The new record leans into a raw pop-punk power-trio sound more than ever, with a deep growl in layered guitars and bursts of percussion and harmony. The songs and artwork explore themes about finding a place for yourself and familiarity with people and places. Although it turns back towards a classic three-piece sound, the band weren?t restricted by that palette, adding finishing touches of percussion, extra guitars and backing vocals in short bursts in a garden shed, and also bringing in gorgeous strings to sweeten the title track.

Broken Chanter
Broken Chanter can be MacGregor on his own or, more often than not, with an array of extremely talented musicians joining him. He spent 2007-2017 as the principal songwriter of Scottish Alt-Pop darlings Kid Canaveral ? a band that could get you to dance, laugh, and weep all in the space of the same set. Their Debut LP Shouting at Wildlife was described by The Herald as ?a Scottish pop classic that should be mandatory in every record collection in the country?, and saw the band perform across a large chunk of the western hemisphere, with similarly well-received follow-up Now That You Are a Dancer being long-listed for the Scottish Album of the Year Award in 2014.

His brand new album Chorus Of Doubt will burst forth into the world via Chemikal Underground on 5 April 2024.

Prior to this incendiary new gem of an LP, MacGregor has released two critically acclaimed albums as Broken Chanter ? 2019?s eponymous introduction to his new guise (A stunning, stately debut ? The Skinny) and 2021?s award-winning Catastrophe Hits which peaked at #7 in the Scottish Album Chart, #10 in the UK Vinyl Chart, #16 in the UK Independent Chart, and #29 in the UK Physical Sales Chart.
