"Fever", the band's first single, was released in early 2001.
The song, and its two B-Sides "Love Is Here" and "Coming Down" were cut from a demo recording session in mid-2000.
All three tracks went on to feature on Starsailor's first album Love Is Here, but were re-recorded.

In March 2001 the band sold out its first UK Tour, which consisted of eleven dates in England.
Their second single, "Good Souls", was released in April and featured a cover of Van Morrison's "The Way Young Lovers Do" as a B-Side.
During this period, the band were recording their debut album in Rockfield Studios, Wales.
By this time, the band were already previewing many of the album's tracks in their concerts, most notably "Poor Misguided Fool", "Lullaby" and "Way To Fall", which would appear as the ending theme of the video game Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater in 2004.
An acoustic version of "Alcoholic" appeared on a promotional CD for NME magazine earlier in 2001.
The original release date for the album was August 2001.

Further live dates came supporting the Manic Street Preachers in Glasgow, as well as Doves on their North American tour.
The band also marked their first festival appearances, playing at events such as V Festival and Germany's Rock im Park. "
Alcoholic" appeared as the third single to be taken off their debut album, and its number ten chart position remains the band's second highest placing to date.
The single version was actually an extended version of the album track.

Their album Love Is Here reached number 2 in the UK album charts in October 2001, after receiving great critical acclaim.
Combining a mix of acoustic guitar and Walsh's vocals, critics said the songs leave the "hairs on the back of your neck standing."

The year ended with the band winning the "Brightest New Hope" award at the NME Awards, and the release of their fourth single, "Lullaby", which reached number thirty-six.
Some fans complained about the difficulty in obtaining copies of the single.

Peter Kay joined the band on stage at their 2002 Christmas Concert held in Warrington's Parr Hall.
