When: 19th August 2025
Location: O2 Academy
Wallows is an American alternative rock band based in Los Angeles composed of Dylan Minnette, Braeden Lemasters, and Cole Preston. Coming to Glasgow’s O2 Academy on 19th August 2025.
Wallows (composed of Dylan Minnette, Braeden Lemasters, and Cole Preston) returned in 2024 with their highly anticipated third studio album, Model. Which saw them reunite with GRAMMY Award-winning producer John Congleton (St. Vincent, Sharon Van Etten). Recorded at Los Angeles’ legendary Sunset Sound. The album was met by critical applause from the likes of CLASH, proclaiming Model “a no-skips record,”. ROLLING STONE heralding it as their “arena-ready third album,”. Not forgetting DORK who stated the album is “a stunning, natural evolution into their next chapter. Guaranteed to reward on each and every listen.”
Model includes the band’s biggest streaming debut for a single to date and their first song to hit the Top 40 chart in ‘Calling After Me’. As well as the singles ‘Your Apartment’, ‘You (Show Me Where My Days Went)’, ‘Bad Dream’ and ‘A Warning’. Not slowing down, the band kicked off 2025 with the release of “Your New Favorite Song” in January. Followed with ‘Coffin Change’ which was heralded as BBC Radio 1’s Hottest Record. The new singles are a part of Wallows’ EP, More, released in March.
In March 2022, the band released their sophomore album, Tell Me That It’s Over, produced by 3x Grammy Award-winner Ariel Rechtshaid (Vampire Weekend, Haim, Adele). TMTIO saw Wallows continuing on their ever-evolving journey of sonic exploration, fusing a vast array of musical ideas – from lo-fi post-punk and indie-folk to early ‘90s dance-pop psychedelia – into their own one-of-a-kind creative vision. TMTIO marked the full-length follow-up to Wallows’ hugely popular 2019 debut album, Nothing Happens, also produced by John Congleton. The album, which includes the 3x Platinum single ‘Are You Bored Yet? (feat. Clairo)’ proved to be one of that year’s highest streamed debuts and has since gone on to be certified Gold in the United States.
