Allo Darlin'

Allo Darlin' are an indie pop band based in London. Their self-titled debut album was released on the Fortuna Pop! label in 2010, with a second album, Europe, appearing in 2012. A third album, We Come from the Same Place, was released in autumn 2014.

History
Allo Darlin' was started as a solo project by Australian singer and songwriter Elizabeth Morris whilst living in London, England. The band name came from her time working in Soho. "I used to work near the market sellers," she said. "Every day I'd walk past and the old guys would yell out "Allo darlin'" as they ashed into their fruit bowls."

In early 2009, a full band lineup of Allo Darlin' formed with guitarist Paul Rains, drummer Michael Collins and bassist Bill Botting. They released their first single, "Henry Rollins Don't Dance", on WeePOP! Records that summer.

That year Fortuna Pop! signed the band, and they released two singles, "The Polaroid Song" (2009) and "Dreaming" (2010), before the band's self-titled debut full-length, produced by Simon Trought, was released by the label in the summer of 2010. In 2011 Allo Darlin' self-released the "Darren"/"The Wu-Tang Clan" single. The band returned with new album Europe in spring of 2012, released again by Fortuna Pop in the UK and this time by Slumberland in the US.

They spent the next year touring before heading back into the studio to record their third album. We Come from the Same Place was released in October 2014. The band went their separate ways at the end of 2016.

In January 2023, the band announced on social media that they were reuniting for a series of gigs in England, their first in six years, with the intention of recording new music together.
