Dewolff at the Carlisle, Hastings - Friday 22nd March 2024

DeWolff are a young Hammond/guitar/drums three-piece from The Netherlands making an explosive mix of electrified southern blues-rock with a dash of soul and psychedelia. They are some of the meanest, energetic, road-hardened and virtuosic musicians around and have been playing together for half their lives. Now, still in their mid twenties, they have already released 9 studio albums (7 of which hit the Dutch Top 20), 3 live albums, 2 EP’s and even recorded an album with Black Keys-producer Mark Neill. Furthermore, they have their own fully analogue studio where they not only produce their own but also produced many other critically acclaimed albums, and which has already become a cornerstone in the new chapter of Dutch roots-rock history.

Even Luther Dickinson regularly comes over to record some songs together. They have already played over a 1000 shows in Europe, Australia, Indonesia and Russia and since 3 years they even organise their own festival ‘DeWolffest’. In 2019 the band picked up the prestigious Edison Award (Dutch Grammy) for ‘Best Rock’ and in 2020 they received a Buma Award for “Best Sync”. Their last tour saw the band play over 100 shows across 13 countries –The Netherlands, Switzerland, France, Spain, Germany, Belgium, Lithuania, Italy, Denmark, United Kingdom, Czech Republic, Austria and their first trip to Indonesia! They also toured with the likes of Toto, The Black Crowes, The Black Keys, Deep Purple, Ten Years After and Wolfmother and picked up fans in e.g. Seasick Steve, who once woke up backstage at a festival to hear them play, thinking he heard the Allman Brothers playing from 1972, and Roger Glover who has openly declared his love for the band. Even though they’re already blasting for more than a decade, these guys are just starting…
