Rock City vs The Wildhearts is a live album by British rock band The Wildhearts. Recorded on 6 April 2013 at Rock City in Nottingham during a short UK tour to mark the 20th anniversary of Earth vs the Wildhearts, it was produced by Rob Baldock and released on 8 April 2014 by Round Records.

Background

In April 2013, the Wildhearts played a string of UK shows to mark the 20th anniversary of their debut full-length album Earth vs the Wildhearts. Each show comprised two sets – the first a performance of the album in full, the second an "audience participation section" in which show attendees were able to choose the songs.[1] After an initial run of just four shows, the band later added six more dates across two weekends in June 2013.[2] Recordings from the Rock City, Nottingham show were recorded by Rob Baldock of Re:Live Recordings and released as Rock City vs The Wildhearts starting on the band's April 2014 tour.[3]
