Sons and Daughters were a Scottish rock band from Glasgow, Scotland, in existence from 2001 to 2012.
Conceived while on tour with Arab Strap in 2001, Sons and Daughters was initially Adele Bethel's creation. The band's line-up at first comprised Bethel, David Gow and Ailidh Lennon, and the band began recording.
After the later addition of Scott Paterson as a second vocalist, the band played a number of successful concerts. Their debut release, the twenty five minutes-long Love the Cup was financed by the band and initially released on Ba Da Bing Records label in 2003, and later re-released when Sons and Daughters signed to Domino Records in 2004.

On 2 November 2012, the band announced that they would no longer continue as a band bringing an end to 11 years of their career. [1]
