Foo Fighters Recruit Female Supports For UK Tour

by Paul Cashmere on June 18, 2018

Foo Fighters have enlisted female acts Wolf Alice, The Kills and Goat to open on their current UK tour.

While the tour does not exclusively feature female opening acts it is running at a fairly even ratio of male to female.

London’s Wolf Alice, featuring Ellie Roswell, formed in 2010. They have released two albums ‘My Love Is Cool’ (2015) and ‘Visions of a Life’ (2017). Both reached no 2 in the UK.

The Kills formed in 2000. Alisson Mosshart fronts the duo. Their fifth album ‘Ash & Ice’, released in 2016, peaked at no 18 in the UK.

Sweden’s Goat released their third album ‘Requiem’ in 2016.
