Almost a decade after playing in various outfits together and separately on the west coast of Scotland from the tender age of 14, a chance meeting on a train back home for Christmas from London brought childhood friends Frankie Morrow (electric guitar, lead vocals) James Smith (bass) and Duncan Carswell (drums) back together once more. A couple of bevvies later; a plan was born.

After two failed attempts at getting together – and a pandemic to boot – the band finally formed in January 2022.

We are Frankie Morrow. A Scottish, indie, female-led 5-piece ready to melt yer heart. Two of our members have their own projects: Neev and Samuel Nicholson. Something someone wouldn’t know about us is that Frankie and James were in a band together when they were in high school!

Hmm I don’t think we set out with a particular sound in mind. It’s a simple song really, but I knew I wanted it to have lush instrumentation (strings, double bass). The song started as most of them do with just me and an acoustic guitar and I guess it just developed from there quite naturally. Artists like Leif Volebekk who have that genre crossover and develop lengthier songs on a simple theme are an inspiration.
