Formed in Glasgow in 2001; members: Adele Bethel, Scott Paterson, Ailidh Lennon, David Gow. Scottish nationality. Known for indie rock with folk and post-punk elements. Associated with Domino Records. Worked with/tied to Arab Strap and supported Franz Ferdinand. Albums include Love the Cup, The Repulsion Box, This Gift, and Mirror Mirror. Active until 2012.

Three DeBaser reviews chart Sons and Daughters’ evolution from the taut folk-punk of Love the Cup to the compact punch of The Repulsion Box and the hook-stacked variety of This Gift. The band’s Scottish folk inflections and punk attitude are recurring themes, with dual vocals and brisk guitars up front. Critiques note early structural sameness, later traded for a fuller, more varied sound. Overall verdict: sharp, catchy, and recommended.
