WOLF ALICE nominated for a BRIT Award for a second time

WOLF ALICE - Play BELFAST'S ULSTER HALL in support of 2nd album 'Visions Of A Life'

Wolf Alice have been nominated for British Group at The BRIT Awards 2018, the second time the band have been nominated following their shortlisting for British Breakthrough Act in 2016.

Wolf Alice’s nomination caps a stellar year for the band, whose acclaimed second album Visions Of A Life debuted in the UK charts at number two and was named in the top three best albums of 2017 by NME, Q and Drowned in Sound, amongst others. Visions Of A Life is a fundamentally personal album, and one of great growth for Wolf Alice. Current single and album highlight Don’t Delete the Kisses is a sentimental love song for people who don’t do sentimental love songs, and was recently remixed by Charli XCX and Post Precious to give the modern tale of love and self-doubt a slow-burning electropop twist.

Alongside Don’t Delete the Kisses, Visions Of A Life features the songs Yuk Foo, Beautifully Unconventional and Heavenward, and is available now via Dirty Hit in digital, CD and double heavyweight vinyl formats. The album is the follow up to Wolf Alice’s 2015 Gold-selling debut album My Love Is Cool, which hit No. 2 in the UK charts and No. 12 on the Billboard alternative albums chart in the US. In its wake the band were nominated for the Mercury Music Prize, an Ivor Novello Award, a BRIT for Breakthrough Act and Grammy for Best Rock Performance, and took home two NME Awards.
