DREAM WIFE
ANNOUNCE 2022 UK TOUR
“New wave structure meets punk blatancy and 21st-century gender fluency” – New York Times
“Punk rock trio Dream Wife make music that flips a middle finger to convention.” – The FADER
“The art-school project that’s evolved into one of indie-rock’s most politically dynamic emerging acts” – Entertainment Weekly
“The girl gang proving there’s force in femininity. Dream Wife create pop anthems for the Instagram generation” – Dazed
“The follow-up to their self-titled 2018 debut continues to blend 2000s guitar bands with yelping riot grrrl whilst sounding surprisingly new” – The Observer
London-based trio Dream Wife – vocalist Rakel Mjöll, guitarist Alice Go, bassist Bella Podpadec – today announce their re-scheduled UK tour dates. Originally scheduled for April 2021, the dates will now take place in 2022. All tickets for the original shows will be valid for the re-scheduled dates and any remaining tickets are available HERE. Support for all shows comes from Lucia and The Best Boys.
The tour follows the release of the band’s explosive second album So When You Gonna…, which earned both a monumental #18 UK Album Chart debut and a #1 placing in the Official Record Store Chart of Independent Retailers. The record, which was the only album in the top 20 to be produced by an all womxn / non-male engineering team, as well as the only non-major label release, was subsequently named one of Rough Trade’s Top 10 Albums of 2020. The Marta Salogni (Bjork, M.I.A., Bon Iver) produced and mixed record dealt with topics such as miscarriage and gender equality.
