Having extensively toured with English rock mainstays The 1975 and supported names such as Queens Of The Stone Age and Liam Gallagher, the powerhouse quartet have dominated headline shows across the UK, the US, Australia, Japan and Europe. Live is where Wolf Alice’s combination of bite and beauty is most strongly felt. Fittingly describing the album but also apt for the band’s power onstage, Rolling Stone asserted ‘The stakes are high, and the payoffs are real.’ Last year’s second record Visions of a Life, recorded in Los Angeles, took things to new heights on stellar tracks including the slow-burning ‘ Don’t Delete The Kisses’, and ‘ Beautifully Unconventional’ with its beast of a groove.
The gold-certified release hit #2 on the UK charts, garnered multiple nominations including the Mercury Prize and Grammys, and led to the band claiming the NME Award for Best Live Band. That momentum continued with the group’s debut album My Love is Cool (2015), a critical and commercial success. Joel Amey (drums) and Theo Ellis (bassist) completed the group a few years later, culminating in the release of their debut EP Blush. The band’s roots go back to 2010, when vocalist Ellie Roswell and guitarist Joff Oddie came together to make tunes inflected with a mix of folk, grunge and vintage ‘90s indie rock.
Frontier Touring are thrilled to announce that they will return to Australia and New Zealand this September to perform headline shows with plenty of bite! NME’s statement about the North London quartet is a simple one, but it captures the powerful waves they’re making both in studio and live. ‘ Wolf Alice are not just another indie band’.
