The Vaselines sono una band indie rock scozzese formatasi a Glasgow nel 1986. Il duo originale era composto da Eugene Kelly (voce, chitarra) e Frances McKee (voce, chitarra), che hanno collaborato per la stesura dei testi e della musica. La loro musica è caratterizzata da melodie orecchiabili, arrangiamenti semplici ma efficaci e testi introspettivi che esplorano temi come l'amore, la solitudine e la vita quotidiana. 1987 ha visto l'uscita del loro primo album, "Dum Dum", considerato un classico dell'indie rock britannico. Nel corso degli anni '90, The Vaselines hanno pubblicato altri due album di successo, "The Way of the World" (1992) e "Son of a Gun" (1994), prima di sciogliersi nel 1996. La loro influenza è stata significativa per la scena indie rock, con band come Nirvana e Belle and Sebastian che hanno citato The Vaselines come una delle loro maggiori influenze. Nel 2007, Eugene Kelly e Frances McKee si sono riuniti per un tour di reunion, seguito da nuovi album negli anni successivi. Tra i brani più noti di The Vaselines figurano "Son of a Gun", "Dying for It" e "Molly's Lips".
