The Snuts are a Scottish indie rock band formed in 2015, originating from West Lothian, Scotland.

[8][9] The band's debut single, the demo "Glasgow" was described as a 'stunning track with heaps of melody' and quickly lead to an ever since growing fanbase.

[11] The Snuts released their first 'proper' single, "Seasons" in June 2018, described as 'conventional in a much-needed and refreshing way', a 'total throwback to the last renaissance of alternative music' and 'impeccably pieced together, designed to detonate on impact'.

It was described as having "an irresistibly catchy raw edge and a massive chorus" and Cochrane explained that it was a "new twist on a familiar social stigma around the drug epidemic that nobody seems to want to talk about".

[23] In January 2020, the Snuts released a cover of Bruno Mars' "When I Was Your Man" from sessions at the Firepit Recording Studios in London.

[26][27][28] Following the success of Mixtape, the Snuts quickly released their next single, a cover of the Lovin' Spoonful's "Summer in the City".

[3] In August, the band supported the Libertines at a socially-distanced performance at the Virgin Money Unity Arena in Newcastle.

[36] In February 2021, a new single, "Somebody Loves You" was released in support of the Scottish Refugee Council, with the band donating the budget for the music video to the charity.

Between January and February 2022, the Snuts supported the Kooks as an opening act for their nationwide tour promoting their upcoming album 10 Tracks to Echo in the Dark.

In June, they supported Louis Tomlinson along with Californian band Sun Room for a couple performances in Mexico.

[40] The Snuts opened for Tomlinson again in 2023 on the North America leg of his Faith in the Future World Tour.

On leaving Parlophone, Cochrane said that "throughout the last campaign it was clear our vision as artists and that of the label, had drifted apart significantly" and that "The Orchard felt like a safe home we could transition to smoothly.
