Sergeant were a Scottish four-piece indie rock band from Glenrothes in Fife. In 2007, they signed a contract with Mercury Records[1] and played both the T in the Park and Glastonbury festivals that year. The band received good reviews for their live shows[2] and attracted support from Jim Gellatly of Xfm Scotland[3] and from Alan McGee, who called the group "a major talent".[4]

Prior to the release of their album, the band were chosen to support Oasis on four Scottish dates and also to support the Fratellis on their full UK tour.[5][6] [7] Sergeant reformed for a one-off gig in Glenrothes in June 2018 to celebrate the town's 70th anniversary.[8]
