Hailing from Derry, Northern Ireland, The Wood Burning Savages exude an incendiary punk-rock spirit to match their name.
Their self-released 2018 debut album Stability propelled them into the limelight across the UK and Irish post-punk scene and beyond, winning them the NI Music Prize for Album of the Year and Best Live Act.
The four-piece pairs sharp-witted political commentary with growling, ferocious guitar riffs. They have brought this dynamic and raw energy on tour supporting the likes of Snow Patrol and ASH as well as playing Glastonbury Festival.
The band’s upcoming UK and Ireland tour will be their first headline run of shows since 2019.

“The Wood Burning Savages are undeniably one of the most intelligent and articulate new Irish bands to come along in quite some time.”

Support from
Alien Chicks
Alien Chicks are a Brixton based post-punk trio, whose music explores jazz, rap, and math rock. Their charisma, humour, and affinity for sonic exploration make for an addictively energetic live show.
Only a year into being a band, they have gained a buzzing grassroots following, always playing to packed crowds, and have sold out the Windmill Brixton alone 9 times, resulting in them being included in Now Waves’ ‘Ones to see in 2023’ series.
