Wolf Alice celebrate home comforts on new track, "The Sofa"

“It’s about not trying so hard to figure everything out, reflecting on getting older and trying not to agonise over things that have or haven’t happened in your life. It’s also about trying to get to grips with the polarising aspects of one’s life when you’re in a band,” explains vocalist Ellie Rowsell.

“You’ve just played a huge tour - and you come home, and you have your dinner on the sofa. For me, it’s summed up in how I treat TV. I used to never watch the same thing twice because I thought I’ve got so much to discover! And now I’m like, It's okay if I just want to rewatch Peep Show for the thirteenth time.”

"The Sofa" follows on from the album’s forerunner, "Bloom Baby Bloom". The track's accompanying video, directed by Fiona Jane Burgess.

Wolf Alice’s fourth album The Clearing follows their debut My Love Is Cool, which featured the Grammy-nominated "Moaning Lisa Smile"; 2018’s follow-up Visions Of A Life cemented their rise with a Mercury Music Prize win, and 2022’s number one album, Blue Weekend with its resultant Brit Award for Best Group.
