Wolfmother brings Cosmic Egg to America
With Wolfmother ready to drop a Cosmic Egg on October 27th, the Australian outfit has unveiled what will be its first North American headlining tour in over two years. The cross-country trek will be kicking-off at the House of Blues in Dallas, TX on October 29th and wrapping up 20 cities later at the legendary Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles. Also included will be an appearance at this year’s Voodoo Experience in New Orleans on Halloween night.
Support for all shows will come from thenewno2 and Heartless Bastards. Limited pre-sale begins Wednesday, September 16th through Musictoday and includes a trial membership to The Wolfies, Wolfmother’s official fan club, and opportunities to pre-order Cosmic Egg with your tickets. Plus, there will be this added benefit:
In a first for the band, Wolfmother has partnered with Musictoday & Trees for the Future, planting one tree in a third world country for every pre-sale ticket sold. Says frontman Andrew Stockdale, “This is something I’ve wanted to do for some time, it’s great to have the opportunity to contribute to the preservation of our environment.”
General on sales for all shows begin Friday, September 18th.
Also on Wolfmother’s upcoming itinerary are dates with AC/DC in the band’s native country in early 2010. Find these and the rest of the band’s confirmed tour dates below.
As mentioned, the band’s new studio album, Cosmic Egg, hits stores on October 27th via Interscope. Brandon Flowers recommends you pick it up.

Don’t know much about Wolfmother but going to the Chicago date to see thenewno2. They’re amazing live.
Also excited that Wolfmother is coming to Minnesota. The only thing is the State Theater is not my favorite venue. Its all seating.
I can’t wait to see them in my hometown of October, CA. *eyeroll*
Awesome news that they’re coming to Minnesota and that the Heartless Bastards are opening for them. I think there first record is criminally underrated and can’t wait to hear what the new one has in store, even though it is a new band now. Getting my ticks Friday fo sho!
