PRAISE
★★★★★ “Wunderhorse are Britain’s most exciting young band, a group with the potential to become all time greats.” THE DAILY TELEGRAPH
“Where that debut album focused on Slater finally becoming the songwriter he had the potential to be, its follow-up reworks and refines his strong storytelling. Here, the frontman enriches his lyrics and pairs them with a dash of chaotic energy brought in by his bandmates and the unity between them.” NME
★★★★★ “Wunderhorse’s second album heralds the arrival of a band that could become generational.” ROLLING STONE UK
“…an album that feels like a cry for human connection in a world where authenticity is increasingly scarce.” THE GUARDIAN
“If you are looking for a polished and flawless album, then look elsewhere. Midas by Wunderhorse is everything apart from polished and flawless, in the best way possible.” THE INDIEPENDENT

Wunderhorse are proud to share new single ‘The Rope’ following a sold-out UK tour which culminated in a triumphant stop at Alexandra Palace and the band’s debut appearance on Jools Holland, televised yesterday (1st June).
‘The Rope’ came together weeks before Wunderhorse embarked on their biggest headline shows to date last month. Conceived and recorded in a flash at London’s RAK Studios with producer Loren Humphrey, the track mirrors the ethos of spontaneity and urgency present throughout recent album Midas.
Midas was recorded at Minnesota’s Pachyderm Studio (birthplace of Nirvana’s In Utero & PJ Harvey’s Rid Of Me) with producer Craig Silvey (The Rolling Stones, The National, Florence + the Machine), and follows the band’s acclaimed 2022 debut, Cub. Released in August last year, the record saw the band striding confidently into their role as one of British guitar music’s most exciting outfits.
Adopting an organic, unpolished recording process, Midas is a collection which captures the visceral atmosphere of Wunderhorse’s lauded live performances. “When we first went into the studio to make this record, the only thing we were sure about is how we wanted it to sound: very imperfect, very live, very raw,” frontman Jacob Slater explains. “We wanted it to sound like your face is pressed up against the amplifiers, like you’ve been locked inside the bass drum.”
Midas is available to order here
Wunderhorse’s debut Australian tour, presented via Handsome Tours, will kick off this coming September. On the tour; “We’ve wanted to head over to AUS and NZ for a while but it never quite materialised for one reason or another. To be heading out there for the first time to some upgraded and sold out venues is surreal to say the least. We’re looking forward to delivering something special for the fans on the other side of the globe.” Wunderhorse

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
