The Wombats’ BBC Radio 1 playlisted track ‘Turn’ can now be heard with a verse sung by pop songstress Dagny. The Republic Records artist teamed up with the Liverpool trio over the Spring to record, and today ‘Turn (feat. Dagny)’ is Zane Lowe’s World Record on Beats 1 on Apple Music.
If beautiful people ruin The Wombats’ lives, the resulting album will make your year. Peaking at #3 in the UK album chart as the highest new entry of that week, the album has since been streamed over 55M times on Spotify, with glowing album reviews from The Times, Evening Standard, Metro, Sunday Times Culture, The Telegraph, Dork Magazine and more.
‘Turn’ was Annie Mac’s Hottest Record on BBC Radio 1, and received heavy rotation from Huw Stephens, Clara Amfo, Phil Taggart, Radio X’s daytime playlist, as Virgin Radio’s Single Of The Week, and performed live on Zoe Ball On Sunday for ITV.
After a sold-out UK & European tour including London’s Alexandra Palace, “doubters take note, these Marsupials are officially massive”, confirmed the NME, The Wombats recently played the 50th anniversary Isle Of Wight Festival, are currently touring the US in support to Pixies and Weezer, and will appear at festivals including Y Not?, Glasgow Summer Series, and a main stage billing at Reading & Leeds.
