New album ‘Blue Weekend’ set for release on the 4th June
WOLF ALICE have released their new track NO HARD FEELINGS, a delicate ballad striking the balance
between emotional complexity and direct songwriting. The track is the third to be taken from their
forthcoming album, BLUE WEEKEND, which follows their Mercury Prize-winning VISIONS OF A LIFE.
NO HARD FEELINGS is the sound of a moment of clarity, a bouncing guitar line intertwining with Ellie
Rowsell’s vocals.
Speaking about the track, Rowsell says:
“I started out trying to make a really cheesy,
almost Motown-y, Ronettes kind of song about the end of a relationship, and feeling ‘What’s the point
of being miserable about it?’ But it was short, because originally it was played so fast. I tried to make it
longer, but I didn’t have any more words – I had said everything I wanted to say perfectly and didn’t
want to ruin it with more. So instead we slowed it down, and I felt way more moved by it like that.”
NO HARD FEELINGS is accompanied by a video directed by Jordan Hemingway (Gucci, Raf Simons,
Comme Des Garcons), the band’s third collaboration with Hemingway following videos for previous
singles The Last Man On Earth and Smile . The band recently appeared on The Late, Late Show with
James Corden, performing a riotous version of Smile.
WOLF ALICE recently announced a 2022 UK and Ireland tour, their first headline shows since 2018. The
majority of dates sold out within hours and a number of new shows have since been added, including
second shows in London, Manchester, Bristol and Dublin, and a third night in Glasgow. Full dates are as

alongside Coldplay, Michael Kiwanuka, IDLES, Haim and more.
