History
Wolf Alice began in 2010, initially as a solo project of Ellie Roswell, with the name taken from a book by Angela Carter. She was joined by guitarist Joff Oddie and later by Joel Amey and Theo Ellis. They released a self-titled EP in 2012 as well as a single called "Leaving You" which gained airplay from BBC Radio 1 and featured in NME's 'Radar' section. They then toured with Peace, recorded a session for Huw Stephens' Radio 1 show in January, and released their first physical single "Fluffy" in February 2013 on the Chess Club label. The band are scheduled to release their second single "Bros" in May.

Musical style
While the group's early material was folk-tinged pop, they became more rock-oriented after the rhythm section joined. Clash described the band as "the lovechild of folk and grunge". The "Fluffy" single saw the band compared to Elastica and Hole, while the single's B-side, "White Leather", saw comparisons to The xx. Kitty Empire, writing in The Observer described their sound as "an engaging strain of off-kilter indie rock". The band describe their music as "rocky pop".

Bros
"Bros" is the second single by Wolf Alice scheduled for release on 20 May 2013. The song was written in the bands early stages and they used to play it live a lot, it was written about childhood friendship. It's B-side "Every Cloud" was also an early song and was featured on the Wolf Alice EP.
