THE RETURN OF WOLFMOTHER




The triumphant return of Wolfmother is imminent. Frontman
Andrew Stockdale has emerged from his self-built home studio
and is due to head to LA to record the second Wolfmother album
with producer Alan Moulder in April.

Wolfmother stepped out earlier in February to play two shows
in Brisbane and Sydney to roadtest the new material prior to
recording. Billed as White Feather, the shows at the Valley
Studios in Andrew’s hometown of Brisbane and The Oxford Arts
Factory in Sydney sold out within minutes of word leaking
online, and Wolfmother ripped through a set of old gold and
new magic to those quick enough to be there.

Coming aboard for album two is esteemed producer Alan Moulder,
universally admired for his groundbreaking work with Nine Inch
Nails, Smashing Pumpkins, The Jesus & Mary Chain and My Bloody
Valentine. After mixing a track Andrew had recorded at home
for the upcoming Guitar Hero game, Moulder was enlisted to
produce the whole record, which is due for release in the last
quarter of 2009.

On the live front, Wolfmother will mark their return playing
both the Melbourne & Sydney Sound Relief Benefit concerts
scheduled to run simultaneously on March 14 and the Clipsal
500 motor racing event in Adelaide on March 22.
