Wolf Alice chats Rocking the Daises and Gardens
British four-piece band, Wolf Alice will be bringing their brand of alternative rock to South Africa this weekend with a headline spot at Rocking the Daises in Cape Town on 6 October and Rocking the Gardens in Joburg on the 7 October. We got in touch with bass guitarist Theo Ellis to chat about their debut SA tour, winning the 2018 Mercury Prize and more.

An hour long fiesta of uplifting and depressing all-out pop rock that spans the ages.

We get in pretty early Friday morning and are hoping to see Table Mountain. It's our first time so we are open to recommendations, we need pointing in direction of the best bars in town for sure.
If you had to describe your musical style as fruit what would it be and why?
Passionfruit, because Drake loves em, much like us. (Drake has defs never heard of us but I'm taking this opportunity to reach out for a collaboration).


We could do more for sure. We travel extensively so our carbon footprint is shameful, however we have ensured that all our albums have been made of recyclable material in CD form as they are so mass produced. We could all do a lot more.
Any other acts on the line-up you’re excited to see?
6lack and Tom Grennan. I love that new Young Thug track with 6lack

To be honest we don't even know what to expect from our next album.

I have no guilty pleasures all music is great.

Probably a quick lie down and then straight back into making the new album.
Rocking the Daisies, which will be held at Cloof Wine Estate in Darling from 5-7 October 2018 and In The City Rocking the Gardens will be taking place on 7 October at Emmarentia Dam in Joburg. Fore more info go to rockingthedaisies.com and www.facebook.com/RockingTheGardens.
