Our IVW 2026 All Dayer arrives on Saturday 31st January 2026 and we’re thrilled to announce this year’s headliner is Insecure Men!We’re also inviting along local favs Workstuff, with plenty more TBA in due course…
Fresh from the release of their latest record, ‘A Man For All Seasons’, this long-awaited return comes off the back of a period that Saul Adamczewski spent fixing fractured relationships with the mother of his infant daughter, his family, friends, and Fat White Family (the band he co-founded in 2011).
Insecure Men began in 2015, a repository for Adamczewski’s more reflective and melodic material that was naturally completely unsuitable for Fat White Family, and to make use of an in-joke that FWF should really be called “Insecure Men Who Look At Their Phones Too Much.”
Their self-titled debut album was released in 2018. Adamczewski was out of Fat White Family, out of rehab, and turned in a melodically rich and sonically inventive album that surprised critics with its confident and focused songwriting (even if that songwriting was about Operation Yewtree, Cliff Richard and the death of Whitney Houston.)
Praised by The Guardian as a redemptive breakthrough, it was a Top 5 Album of the Year for The Quietus. But where that album used a woozy stew of lounge, exotica and off-kilter pop music as a base from which to examine the true-life horrors of fame, substance abuse and imperialism, ‘A Man For All Seasons’ fixes its gaze on something no less shocking or ugly: the end of a relationship.
