The Wombats visit hmv to perform live and sign copies of their new album 'Glitterbug'.
Already named as Zane Lowe's Hottest Record, The Wombats release their eagerly anticipated new album 'Glitterbug'. The record was produced by the band and Mark Crew (Bastille) and inspired by core songwriter Murph's experiences in Los Angeles. Drawn to the city's mix of "opulence and anxiety", his songwriting for the album focused upon the idea of writing about a tumultuous relationship with a fictional woman from Los Angeles. Instrumentally, most of the songs took one of two directions: back inLiverpool, bassist Tord and drummer Dan’s rush of creativity would result in them delivering backing tracks as a foundation for Murph to then build upon in L.A. or London; alternatively Murph would develop the essence of a song on guitar or piano for the band to collectively flesh out. Despite the initial geographic displacement of the trio, subsequent sessions at Mark Crew’s London studio demonstrated that TheWombats’ inter-band dynamics are as strong as ever before.
The band embark on a tour of O2 Academies beginning in Bristol on 8th and ending in Newcastle on 19th.
