Fat Dads have been making waves with their infectious tunes and unwavering DIY ethos.
Their early demos skyrocketed to acclaim, grabbing the attention of Radio 1 and Radio X through word of mouth alone. Fat Dads made their first festival appearance at Kendal Calling 2023 and played to a packed and overflowing tent (the largest crowd that the BBC Introducing tent had seen all weekend) of passionate fans, all singing the words back to them – a remarkable feat achieved entirely without industry contacts, PR, or management.
The back end of 2023 saw Fat Dads perform live on Radio X, and support Andrew Cushin. Their most recent 2 singles ‘Jenny’ (which reached No. 74 in the Official Charts) and ‘Honey’ were produced by Alex Quinn (The Royston Club, Overpass, Bandit) and received support from Radio 1, Radio X and Clash Magazine. Their early 2024 tour saw multiple sell out dates in Newcastle, Manchester, and culminated in a packed hometown show in Carlisle.
Their debut album ‘Fat & Furious’ will be released on April 4th 2025.
