Ahead of their UK arena tour, The Wombats have treated us to their new single Bee-Sting.

The Wombats release yet another indie banger, this time in the form of Bee-Sting.

With an infectious chorus and relaxed instrumentals, the band once again show their penchant for writing memorable hooks. Featuring a strong acoustic guitar presence, there’s a feel-good vibe about the song that will make you want to immerse yourself in the music and get lost in it.

The band also prepares to embark on their biggest UK headline tour to date in early 2019, including a date at London’s Wembley Arena. These shows will doubtless cement the band’s position at the top of the indie game.

Frontman Matthew Murphy says:

I think the song is again a bit of an homage to the ‘90s, a bit of a psychedelic nod to early Dandy Warhols, maybe. Our UK tour in March/April was probably my favourite tour ever, but it feels like this one is going to go off even more. Wembley is going to be a real moment for us!

Additionally, the band will also be releasing an extended version of Beautiful People Will Ruin Your Life, featuring three extra bonus tracks – new single Bee-Sting, an acoustic version of one of the album’s standout songs Lethal Combination, and a brand new track in Oceans. Bee-Sting will also be released as a limited edition 7” on November 9th with Oceans on the B-Side.
