Young Fathers win Mercury Music Prize

October 30, 2014

Young Fathers, the Scottish hip-hop electronica trio from Edinburgh, have beaten off competition from the likes of FKA twigs, Damon Albarn and Kate Tempest to win 2014's Mercury Prize and a cheque for £20,000.

They released their debut record Dead on Big Dada at the turn of the year and have followed up the critical acclaim heaped upon the album with a series of incredible live shows.

Perhaps a surprising win, and not exactly the bookies favourite, they have been applauded for their win all the same.

A big congrats from us to them, check out "Get Up" below:
