About Young Fathers
Psychedelic soul, post-punk, and left-field strains of hip-hop and pop account for only some of the styles that swim through Young Fathers' dense and fiery sound. The Edinburgh-based trio released several EPs and singles before breaking through with their 2014 debut album, Dead, which won the prestigious Mercury Prize. This was followed by the heavier White Men Are Black Men Too in 2015, and the group's music was extensively featured in the 2017 film T2 Trainspotting before the more direct yet equally hard-to-categorize Cocoa Sugar cracked Scotland's Top Ten in 2018. After a lengthy break, Young Fathers returned in 2022 with a batch of singles leading to the emotionally complex if uninhibited 2023 album Heavy Heavy.
