The fro'dup Sydneysiders will launch this CD with an appearance at the Coachella Festival in California a few days prior to the US release date. Their first truly national tour will follow; taking the band right across the US and Canada through mid-June. Please see below for all the new dates and venues.

Wolfmother's self-titled disc was produced by D. Sardy (Oasis, Dandy Warhols, Helmet, Jet). The heady collection of epic rock is already certified double platinum in Australia and was voted "Album Of The Year" by that country's alternative radio network, Triple J.

The group is currently generating similar bigtime buzz in North America with their song "Woman" ascending rapidly up the airplay charts and Rolling Stone featuring Wolfmother as one of their "Top 10 Artists To Watch in 2006." Entertainment Weekly picked them as THE standout from the 1400+ artists who appeared at this year's South By Southwest music conference in Austin and the Los Angeles Times recently ran a glowing full page feature on the band in their Sunday "Calendar" section.

Wolfmother has also been embraced on the other side of the Atlantic, with UK indie bible NME saying, "if you want to be rocked so hard that your teeth shatter then this is the band for you" and tastemaker Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe regularly featuring "Woman" as his "Best Record In The World." Not surprisingly the group has already been confirmed on major British Festivals like Reading and T in the Park over summer.
