Wolf Alice have confirmed two intimate UK shows to mark the arrival of their fourth album, 'The Clearing'.

The dates fall after the record’s release, with the North London band set to play Kingston and Liverpool at the end of August and start of September.

Announced in May, 'The Clearing' is due on 22nd August via Sony. It follows the band’s debut 'My Love Is Cool', their Mercury Prize-winning second album 'Visions Of A Life', and 2022’s 'Blue Weekend'. Wolf Alice have already shared 'Bloom Baby Bloom', 'The Sofa' and 'White Horses' from the new release.

Tickets for the two shows go on sale at 11am on Tuesday (12th August). The band are also planning a major headline tour of the UK and Ireland later in the year.

The dates in full read:

AUGUST31 Circuit, Kingston, UK

SEPTEMBER1 Camp and Furnace, Liverpool, UK

Most recent taster from the album, 'White Horses', features drummer Joel Amey on lead vocals before moving into a duet with Ellie Rowsell. Originally beginning as notes written during a car journey with his family, Joel explains: “I was inspired by what songs we had already that were becoming ‘The Clearing’; the sonic shapes we were creating, the big acoustics, the harmonies, but I wanted to underpin it with a driving krautrock beat.”

The track explores themes of family and identity, drawing from Amey’s personal experiences. “We’ve never really known where we came in terms of heritage until recently. My mum and my aunt were adopted, and for years it posed questions of identity and where our roots lay for all of us, but for me, they never seemed like answers I needed to find out.”
