Recorded at Beetroot Studios in Airdrie with producer and engineer Stuart MacLeod, Brontës’ eponymous album is a sassy slice of sophisticated pop. Imagine the Tom Tom Club jamming with Chrissie Hynde. A band that has been maturing and building live buzz since their very first single, this promises to be a huge crowd pleaser.

“Writing, recording and playing this album has been incredible,” the band shared, “Working with Stuart MacLeod at the beginning of the year on the tracks was a special experience, it felt surreal and close to magic. Having the opportunity to use a studio like Beetroot and record with someone who believed in the music as much as we did was truly extraordinary. The album is sassy and jangly, but it is also the most vulnerable we have presented ourselves in our music, which as a band is a big step for us in the new direction. We are ecstatic for people to finally hear what we have been working on together with Beetroot and LNFG, and for what we do next”.

Latest single “Wouldn’t Be Me” is a punchy take on disliking someone’s boyfriend, a playful request to dump him and move on. First single “Cognitive Dissonance” was released last August, a sunny indie-rock hit full of catchy guitar licks and classic pop lyricism exploring feelings of jealousy and anger, while second single “San Francisco” is a change of pace, showcasing the quartet’s versatility. It digs deep and slows down, contemplating the tragedy of right person, wrong time.

The full record arrives on green and red vinyl on 21st April 2026, with a special amber colourway available exclusively to Last Night From Glasgow members. Pre-order here.

About Brontës

Brontës are Eva on vocals/guitar, Amelia on drums/vocals, Erin on guitar/vocals and Katie on bass/vocals. With a brand new look, attitude and sound Brontës have reinvented themselves as a 4-piece rock/pop band influenced by generations of classic pop music such as Sabrina Carpenter, Blondie and The Ronettes.

The Glasgow band have built up a steady buzz on the live circuit since emerging in 2021, from playing a sold-out headline gig at the iconic King Tuts to festival slots across the country. Fast forward to 2025 and Brontës have recently finished recording their highly anticipated debut album at Ayrshire’s Beetroot Studio with Stuart MacLeod. Assured in their polished sound, the group are looking forward to branching out in this next chapter as one of Glasgow’s most promising young indie bands. The self-titled album is set for release on 21 April 2026 on three shades of vinyl, CD and digital formats.

Brontës joined label Last Night From Glasgow in 2021. First Hand Arrogance and Groove were released as an AA side 7” single in 2022 prompting praise from Snack Mag, Discovery Music, Is This Music.
