GALLUS bottle that sense of anticipation, the idea that anything could happen. Throwing back to the days when responsibilities were few, anticipation was high, and opportunity was around every corner.The band combine the energetic bounce of Sports Team with the tongue in cheek running commentary of life in 2022 of Yard Act and the introspection of contemporaries Fontaines D.C.
After forming in a pub of the same name,the Glasgow Indie-punks have made their way to the summit of Scotland's underground music scene.
The band formed under unorthodox circumstances; after failed attempts to get their previous musical project off theground, cousins Paul and Eamon Ewins recruited school friend Barry Dolan as their front man after seeing him in a college play, despite little to no musical background. It was his dynamism and energy that drew them to him, and it was these characteristics that the band grew famous for.The band's reputation for electric, and at times chaotic, live shows grew quickly, and they soon took to filling rooms up and down the UK, Europe and beyond. Having supported the likes of Biffy Clyro and played to thousands at festivals and showcases, including SXSW, The Great Escape and ESNS, in the last 12 months, Gallus' reputation on the international stage is starting to grow in notoriety. This was reflected in the band being crowned Best Rock/Alternative Category at the Scottish Alternative Music Awards in 2022.
