Wolfmother are an Australian hard rock band formed in Sydney, New South Wales in 2000.[1] Originally a trio featuring vocalist and guitarist Andrew Stockdale, bassist and keyboardist Chris Ross, and drummer Myles Heskett, the group released their self-titled debut album in Australia in 2005, with all 12 tracks credited equally to all three band members.[2] Four songs – "Dimension", "Woman", "White Unicorn" and "Apple Tree" – had originally been released on the band's self-titled debut EP the previous year.[3] When Wolfmother was released internationally in 2006, it also featured "Love Train".[2] In May 2007, the band contributed "Pleased to Meet You" to the Spider-Man 3 soundtrack.[4]
Ross and Heskett left Wolfmother in August 2008.[5] Returning with new members Ian Peres (bass, keyboards), Aidan Nemeth (rhythm guitar) and Dave Atkins (drums), the band released the single "Back Round" in March 2009,[6] followed by their second album Cosmic Egg in October, the songwriting for which was credited entirely to Stockdale.[7] In March 2010, the band contributed the song "Fell Down a Hole" to the Almost Alice soundtrack,[8] before Atkins announced his departure the following month.[9]
With Will Rockwell-Scott replacing Atkins, Wolfmother began working on their third album in 2011, although the resulting album Keep Moving was eventually released in 2013 as Andrew Stockdale's solo debut.[10] The band returned later in the year as a trio composed of Stockdale, Peres and drummer Vin Steele, and began working on their official third album.[11] New Crown was released independently in March 2014, featuring ten songs written by Stockdale.[12] The band's fourth album Victorious was released in February 2016, with songwriting again credited to Stockdale alone (with the exception of "Gypsy Caravan", which was co-written by Spiderbait drummer Kram).[13]
