The discography of Glasvegas, a Scottish Indie rock[1] band, consists of two studio albums and nine singles. James Allan (vocals and guitar), Rab Allan (guitar), Paul Donaghue (bass) and Ryan Ross (drums) formed the band in Glasgow, Scotland in 2003. The band's debut single was the limited edition double A-side single, "I'm Gonna Get Stabbed"/"Ina Lvs Rab", which was released in May 2004.[2] Ross left the band in 2004 and was replaced on drums by Caroline McKay. Three further singles were released through WaKS and Sane Man, all of which failed to chart.

The band signed with Columbia Records in early 2008 and released two further singles – "Geraldine" and "Daddy's Gone" (a re-release of their third single) – which reached numbers sixteen and twelve on the UK Singles Chart respectively. The band's debut album, Glasvegas, was released in September 2008 and reached number two on the UK Albums Chart. A mini-Christmas album, A Snowflake Fell (And It Felt Like a Kiss), followed in December 2008, which failed to chart in the UK although it reached number fifty-nine on the Swedish Albums Chart.
