Falloch was formed in Glasgow, Scotland in 2010 by Andy Marshall and Scott McLean
Their sound draws inspiration from a variety of musical styles such as atmospheric rock, metal, post-rock, Scottish folk as well as minimalist composers such as Arvo Pärt and Yann Tiersen.
Having a deep connection with nature the band is named after the Falls of Falloch waterfall in Crianlarich. Falloch ("Falach" in Scottish Gaelic) means "hidden/in hiding".
They started recording their debut album 'Where Distant Spirits Remain' in 2010. Upon completion they managed to secure legendary producer Ronan Chris Murphy (Ulver, King Crimson etc.) to master the album in early 2011, with the chance to sign to the revered Candlelight Records following shortly after. Their album was released on 26th September to a great critical reception.
In 2012 Falloch splitted with Andy Marshall - their vocalist and guitarist. Nonetheless, "Writing for the second album is going well and these changes hopefully shouldn't delay things too much.", as it was annouced by the band.
