The View

The View is a Scottish indie rock band hailing from Dundee, formed in 2005. The band consists of Kyle Falconer (lead vocals, guitar), Kieren Webster (bass guitar, vocals), Pete Reilly (lead guitar), and Steven Morrison (drums). They first captured public attention with their energetic live performances and their raw, anthemic sound, characterized by a blend of hard-edged rock and melodic songwriting. Their debut album, "Hats Off to the Buskers," released in 2007, was a critical and commercial success, earning them a Mercury Prize nomination and propelling them into the UK music scene limelight.

As The View continued their musical journey, they remained true to their indie roots while evolving their sound. Albums such as "Which Bitch?" and "Ropewalk" showcased their willingness to experiment with different genres and textures, while retaining the strong, engaging storytelling present in their lyrics. Despite lineup changes and the tumultuous nature of the music industry, The View has maintained a dedicated fan base, thanks to their relentless touring schedule and the consistent quality of their releases, including singles like "Exorcism of Youth" and "Woman of the Year." Their distinctly Scottish perspective and unapologetic approach to their artistry have solidified The View's reputation as stalwarts of modern British rock.
