Glasgow pop-rockers 100 Fables are already getting known beyond their home city – with a helping hand from Holly Willoughby.

The group were stunned last week when their new single Wake Up was aired on This Morning, accompanying a piece on Victoria Beckham’s fashion line.

The exposure to millions of viewers is a big boost to the quartet, who play Stereo tomorrow.

“I think I’ve spent the last 24 hours going ‘Holly Willoughby said our name’”, laughs singer Lyndsey Liora.

“It makes it even more special for me as she was one of the modern woman who helped me overcome some body confidence issues in the past.

“Our fans have been going mental on social media and we’ve had a ton of messages from new fans who’ve just heard us for the first time. It’s all just a bit surreal and hopefully it’s the first of many more - maybe next time they’ll ask us to come play live in the studio!”

The quartet could well make plenty of TV appearances in the future, as they play energetic new wave pop that has already sparked comparisons to the likes of Blondie, the Cars and the Killers. Yet although Wake Up, their third single, has an upbeat tune, the actual lyrics go back to a difficult time in Lyndsey’s own life.

“If you take it completely literally it can be about violence and abuse in a relationship, but the place I wrote it from was more about one person who kept, when you’re down, bringing everything back on you and saying it was all your fault,” she explains.

“When I was writing it I based it around a reasonably recent realisation I’d come to. It’s not always someone you’re in a relationship with, it can be about someone you work with or a friend, someone you love and trust but is doing that to you.”

The video for the track taps into some of the band’s pop culture obsessions, with the group wearing shades that reveal people’s true character, in a homage to John Carpenter’s cult classic They Live, and it is being shown around the world in various different Hard Rock Café’s.

That’s because the band last year won the European Hard Rock Rising contest, beating competition from across the continent. One of the prizes for their triumph was getting a video playlisted in the chain of restaurants.

“It has been such a boost for the band as a whole,” says the singer.

“It can be hard being a young band at times and you sometimes wonder if your music is really that great. So even just winning the Glasgow heat was amazing, and we couldn’t believe it when told we’d won Europe.”

Although the group are planning more music throughout the year, including another EP, getting that confidence boost was much needed. Anyone who sees the band perform tomorrow, where they support pop-rap singer Girli, might see Lyndsey bounding around the stage and assume she’s full of confidence all the time.

However the singer points to her band mates - guitarist Erin Reidy, bassist Harris Hiscoe and drummer Chris Stewart – as being the reason for her self-belief.

“I couldn’t do this without those guys,” she says.

“The first time I played with them I knew I couldn’t do this as a solo artist, I wouldn’t want to do this on my own. Playing live with others and having that bond, that friendship, and knowing that you four made that material, that’s the thing I love most about 100 Fables.

“They all laugh at me because I get so nervous before gigs and then jump out there and have this confident stage persona, but that persona is because of them, and knowing they have my back.”

Girli/100 Fables, Stereo, tomorrow, £7, 7pm. Wake Up is currently exclusively available on Spotify, before general release on April 21.
