The Fat Lady Sings - Twist

The Fat Lady Sings' debut album Twist stands out as a deeply felt, emotionally charged slice of early-'90s Irish alternative rock, driven by Nick Kelly's distinctive song writing and the band's blend of pop-rock, indie, and dream-tinged textures

The Fat Lady Sings emerged in Dublin in 1986 before relocating to London, where they built a strong live following and released several independent singles. Fronted by singer- songwriter Nick Kelly , the band gained notable attention in Ireland, scoring multiple Top 20 singles in 1990-91. Their line up for the debut album featured Kelly, Tim Bradshaw, Dermot Lynch, and Robert Hamilton.

Released in May 1991 on East West Records, Twist marked the band's first major-label album and showcased their ability to merge alternative rock , pop- rock , and jangly, emotionally resonant song writing . The album followed the major- label single Man Scared and produced three additional singles: Arclight, Twist, and Deborah.

The album credits highlight the band's hands- on creative approach, with production contributions from both the band and producers Mike Roarty and Paul Hardiman.

Past Night From Glasgow re-issue the album on 27th November 2026 on vinyl and CD.

The band play Oran Mor in Glasgow on 30 November 2026. PNFG also reissue The Fat Lady Sings' 1993 album John Son in November 2026.
