Wolfmother to Bring ‘Victorious Tour’ to the Pacific Northwest March 30th Through April 1st

Wolfmother1

Soon, Grammy Award-winning rock band Wolfmother will be heading out on a tour of North America in support of their forthcoming album Victorious, which comes out Feb 19th through Universal, and was produced by two-time Grammy winner Brendan O’Brien (Pearl Jam, Springsteen, Mastodon). They’ve released three tracks so far: “Gypsy Caravan”“Victorious” and “City Lights”. Last week, they premiered a kitschy sci-fi video for lead single “Victorious.”

Wolfmother will be including songs from Victorious on their much-anticipated headlining tour of North America, set to kick off February 24th at First Avenue in Minneapolis. Their tour will climax with a series of three shows in the Pacific Northwest, starting with Portland’s Wonder Ballroom, then heading up to The Showbox in Seattle, then finally concluding in Vancouver, B.C. at the Commodore Ballroom. 

Wolfmother first made its mark in 2005 with an eponymous debut that was exactly what rock & roll needed: a meaty, beaty, big and bouncy genre resuscitator that not only broke through to the mainstream, but broke big. The album was certified Gold in the States, UK & Canada and 5x-Platinum in the band’s Australian homeland. Lead single “Woman” hit top ten on the Hot Modern Rock Tracks Chart and won a Grammy for “Best Hard Rock Performance.” Their songs became ubiquitous, appearing in films (ShrekJackassDue DateThe Hangover I, II & III), video games (Need For Speed, MLB: The ShowSaints Row) and television commercials (Apple, Mitsubishi). Rolling Stone named it one of the best albums of the year, Magazine called it “immense fun,” NME said it ticked “the requisite boxes for all great rock & roll” and called it “utterly, utterly thrilling” and Pitchfork praised the songs for striking “a balance between meaty vintage metal and crisp, stoner-rock melodies.”
