Wild Beasts on Dork

Hayden Thorpe has announced some intimate shows revisiting Wild Beasts songs after nine years

The stripped-back solo performances mark 20 years since the band's debut single.

Wild Beasts: "'Boy King' was the sound of our final fuck flying away"

Wild Beasts were one of the many, many highlights of Live At Leeds earlier this year, and this August they're back onstage for LeeFest.

Wild Beasts: Fit for a king

Wild Beasts have rarely sounded as fun as they do on new album, 'Boy King'. "The more ridiculous it got, the better it felt," the band explain.
