In 2001, after recording four albums with the Fanclub, Quinn decided to leave the band and begin work on his first ever set of original songs. Collaborating with local Glaswegian musician Ryan Currie at ex-Oasis bassist Paul "Guiggs" McGuigan's studio, Quinn sang and played many of the instruments on the band's debut album, North Pole. He then released the album on his own Bellbeatmusic label in 2004. Go followed on Re-Action Records in 2007. Later that year, Quinn and Currie amicably parted ways.
