Saul Adamczewski accused of assault and abuse, victims allege

Saul Adamczewski accused of assault and abuse is the subject of allegations reported by The Quietus. The publication says two women on social media have accused Adamczewski of domestic abuse. One woman described a short relationship and alleged violent behaviour, including being pushed, having glass bottles thrown at her, being chased with a kitchen knife, and experiencing threats while pregnant. She also alleged that Adamczewski took her passport, stole her money, and funded drugs.

Another alleged victim, Alexandra Scheja, said she has photographs she says document abusive behaviour and listed injuries she attributed to Adamczewski, including black eyes, widespread bruising, scars, and broken mirrors, lamps and cameras. Scheja said she was strangled on the floor and that neighbours called the police; she said Adamczewski was jailed and that a restraining order was issued. She also said that, after release, Adamczewski took part in a podcast in which he bragged about prison and mentioned listening to Frank Sinatra too loud.

Insecure Men were removed from their scheduled Green Man festival set and Mary In The Junkyard performed in their place, and a planned November concert at Rough Trade Liverpool listed on DICE was cancelled. All of Insecure Men’s studio albums were released by Fat Possum, and the band’s name is no longer listed on Fat Possum’s roster page. The Quietus reported it was awaiting a response from Fat Possum.

One woman described a short relationship with Saul Adamczewski and posted statements on social media alleging sustained violent behaviour. She wrote: “Saul has made it his duty to make me suffer. He has been violent, pushed me, thrown glass bottles at me, showered me with beer, chased me with a kitchen knife, insulted me, taken my passport from me, stolen my money and more, all while I had our baby.” She also said the relationship included threats during pregnancy and alleged that Adamczewski funded drugs and stole money from her. The woman characterised one moment as “was the only nice time we had together” in the same series of posts.

Alexandra Scheja posted separate statements and said she has photographic material she says documents abusive behaviour. She listed injuries and property damage in her posts, writing of “black eyes from his fists, bruises everywhere, scars, broken mirrors, lamps, even cameras” and describing severe physical harm. Scheja wrote: “Many times I’d be strangled on the floor over something as small as asking him to lower the music. My neighbours called the police and he was in jail, and got a restraining order from me and my street. Then when he got out, he did a podcast bragging about prison claiming he got into there for listening to Frank Sinatra too loud.”

Insecure Men were removed from their scheduled Green Man festival set, and Mary In The Junkyard performed in their place. A planned November concert at Rough Trade Liverpool that had been listed on the DICE ticketing platform was cancelled. The band’s scheduled live appearances were altered at those events, and the Green Man slot was filled by another act. The DICE listing for the Rough Trade Liverpool date reflects that the planned show did not proceed as originally scheduled.

All of Insecure Men’s studio albums were released by Fat Possum, and the band’s name is no longer listed on Fat Possum’s roster page. Those changes to live dates and the roster listing are public actions associated with the band and its scheduled appearances. The Quietus reported on these developments and stated it was awaiting a response from Fat Possum. The available information does not provide further details about decisions by event organisers or the label beyond the cancellations, replacement performance, roster status, and the publication’s request for comment.

All of Insecure Men’s studio albums were released by Fat Possum, and those releases are identified in reporting as being issued through the label. The band’s name is no longer listed on Fat Possum’s roster page, reflecting a change in how the label presents its current artists online. The Quietus reported these points and stated that it was awaiting a response from Fat Possum regarding the matter.

The available information does not provide further details about the timing of the roster change, any statements from Fat Possum beyond the request for comment, or additional discography details. No other label actions are described in the available reporting.

The Quietus published a report on allegations that were shared publicly by two women on social media, including Instagram posts, and presented statements and photographic claims from those posts. The publication noted details from the social media posts and quoted direct statements attributed to the two women. The Quietus reported changes that were publicly visible following the posts, including event cancellations and alterations to scheduled live appearances. The Quietus also stated that it had contacted the band’s record label and was awaiting a response from Fat Possum.

The social media posts referenced by The Quietus included first-person descriptions of alleged incidents and images that one poster said documented abusive behaviour. The Quietus’ coverage set out the material published on social platforms and linked that material to subsequent public changes such as a festival replacement performance and a cancelled listing on a ticketing platform. The publication’s report reiterated that it was seeking comment from Fat Possum and that it had not yet received a response. The available reporting does not provide further detail about any replies from the label or additional media follow-up.
