Following the release of their critically acclaimed debut My Love is Cool - which entered the charts at #2 - and off the back of a breakthrough Glastonbury, London’s Wolf Alice are pleased to announce that they will be taking Drenge on the road with them as special guests for their upcoming UK & US tour this autumn, taking in their biggest hometown show to date, London’s O2 Brixton Academy on 26th September.
From the moment Drenge’s Eoin joined Wolf Alice on stage for a riotous version of ‘Moaning Lisa Smile’ at their now infamous Williams Green secret show at Glastonbury this year, to Wolf Alice declaring the Sheffield duo as one of the best live acts around it made perfect sense for two of Britain’s upcoming and brightest guitar acts to join up once more, and for Wolf Alice to invite Drenge along for what will no doubt become one of the live highlights of the year. In addition to Drenge, Wolf Alice are pleased to announce that Made Violent will also be joining them for both the US & UK tour.
On the tour Wolf Alice said: “Can't believe that Drenge, in our opinion the best band going, are gonna be joining us on tour. Every time they play live we grow devil horns stronger than before. All hail the brothers loveless.
Made violent have quickly become our touring partners in crime, they're sure to rock your world like never before. It's our honour to have them grace these fair isles and tour with us!”
