The Wombats Proudly Present... A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation

Murph, Dan and Tord met in 2003 while attending Paul McCartney's Liverpool Institute Of Performing Arts. They even received a music tutorial by Sir Paul himself and shared a stage with Ringo Starr. After meeting and forming the band, Murph reminisces on their beginnings in Liverpool; "We fiddled ourselves a gig in a place called Hannah's Bar. We used to call each other 'stupid wombats' and then we needed a name for this first gig so Dan was like 'just call us The Wombats.'" And so it began. Playing 270 live dates in 2007 alone, including apperances at festivals such as Fuji Rocks, Glastonbury and V Festival, The Wombats have become an international buzz band with a brand of hi-octane indie pop genius that will gladly back up the hype.
