Wolf Alice have returned with their excellent new single ‘Bloom Baby Bloom’, the first taste of their upcoming new album ‘The Clearing’.
On the latest track, vocalist 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’ will be released on August 29 via new label Sony Music. Presave it right here.
Catch Wolf Alice at BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Liverpool on May 24 and at Glastonbury Festival next month.
