Wolf Alice have added a new Nottingham date to their upcoming UK tour

Wolf Alice have announced an additional date for their upcoming UK headline tour, with a new show in Nottingham.

The tour, which supports their fourth studio album ‘The Clearing’, will now see the band perform a Nottingham show at Motorpoint Arena on 8th December.

The band recently shared their first single in three years, ‘Bloom Baby Bloom’. Speaking about the track, Ellie Rowsell says: “I wanted a rock song, to focus on the performance element of a rock song and sing like Axl Rose, but to be singing a song about being a woman. I’ve used the guitar as a shield in the past, playing it has perhaps been some way to reject the ‘girl singer in band’ trope, but I wanted to focus on my voice as a rock instrument so it’s been freeing to put the guitar down and reach a point where I don’t feel like I need to prove that I’m a musician.”

‘The Clearing’ was written in Seven Sisters, London, and recorded in LA with producer Greg Kurstin. As part of their commitment to supporting UK grassroots music, £1 from every UK arena show ticket will be donated to the LIVE Trust.
