Sergeant are a 4-piece indie rock band from Glenrothes in Fife, Scotland. In 2007 they signed a contract with Mercury Records.[1] The band played both 2007 T in the Park and Glastonbury festivals and have attracted a fanbase and media attention extending well outside their Scottish base.[2] Xfm Scotland's Jim Gellatly has marked the band as one of his favourites for 2007.[3] They have recently drawn further praise from former Creation Records boss Alan McGee who is keen to replicate the success he claims for discovering Oasis.
Prior to the release of their first album, the band were chosen to support Oasis on the four Scottish dates and also to support The Fratellis on the full UK tour.[4][5]
