Wolfmother, Would You Believe, Tore The Fkn House Down At Splendour Day 1

The blessed Splendour In The Grass is always an endless parade of surprises, and one day one of the 2019 iteration the biggest surprise of all came in the form of, get this, Wolfmother.

Tasked with the somewhat unenviable mid-afternoon timeslot of 3:15pm, the resurgent act beat the soul out of the Splendour Amphitheatre like they were owed money.

There’s never any middle ground with nostalgia acts like this: It’s either all the way unreal, or just a giant mess. And from note one there was never any question about it: Wolfmother kinda still totally kick ass.

With a crowd that rivalled day one headliners Tame Impala and Foals, Andrew Stockdale and mates rattled through a laundry list of hits including Woman, DimensionApple Tree, and the barnstorming set-closer The Joker & The Thief which probably would’ve registered a Richter Scale reading.

Seriously, it fucken ruled. The footage is bananas. We’re just as shocked as you are.

Unbelievable as it may seem, it is the year of our lord 2019, and Wolfmother are cool as shit again.

How’d you bloody well be.
