THE WOMBATS PLAYING BUCKHEAD THEATRE ON FEB 2

Posted by Liz and John Attaway, 1/18/26

 In early December, The Wombats released their deluxe for Oh! The Ocean coming featuring the original tracklist along with a new collection of songs recorded, offering fans a deeper dive into the sonic world the band built with the album. 

Listen to Oh! The Ocean Extended Version here.

Since The Wombats emerged as leading lights of the late-‘00s indie rock scene with 2007 debut A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation, Murph, bassist Tord Øverland Knudsen and drummer Dan Haggis have maintained an incredible upward momentum. 2011’s electro-flecked second album This Modern Glitch made them Top Ten regulars; 2015’s third Glitterbug saw them embraced by the TikTok generation, with “Greek Tragedy” a viral hit several times over. By 2018’s Beautiful People Will Ruin Your Life they’d stepped up to arenas and 2022’s Fix Yourself, Not the World consolidated their unstoppable rise with the band’s first Number One album, seeing them reach over 2.5 billion streams. Headline shows at Crystal Palace and The O2 followed amid the band’s biggest touring cycle so far, taking in arenas across the globe and culminating at Reading 2024, where the band headlined a rammed Radio 1 tent overspilling with crowds of 18-24-year-olds that remain their core audience twenty years into their career.

KING PRESS ON TOUR AT BUCKHEAD THEATRE 10/26

Posted by Liz and John Attaway, 10/1/25

New York City’s King Princess – the project of Brooklyn-based vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, producer and actor Mikaela Straus – recently released her triumphant third record Girl Violence. In celebration of the album’s release, she is headed on a headline tour and will make a stop in Atlanta, GA to play Buckhead Theatre on 10/26

There is truly no one like King Princess – with over one billion streams across platforms, a string of global certifications, collaborations with the likes of Fiona Apple, Florence Welch, Aaron Dessner, Mark Ronson, and Father John Misty, performances on Saturday Night Live, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, and NPR Tiny Desk, tours with The Strokes, Florence + The Machine, and Kacey Musgraves, fashion campaigns for Gucci and Calvin Klein, and a constant champion of LGBTQ+ visibility…King Princess is a singular artist that is ready for her big return.

Girl Violence was announced earlier this Summer with a performance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and King Princess recently sat down with The New Yorker to discuss the new record. 

The album also comes in the midst of Straus’ television debut, as she stars in the recent season of Nine Perfect Strangers on Hulu, alongside Nicole Kidman, with her film debut to come later this year with Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson in Song Sung Blue. 

Let me know if you’d like to discuss preview or live coverage around this show, would love to set something up! 

“[King Princess’] striking third album, “Girl Violence”—her best yet—which cements her status not only as a virtuosic provocateur but as a generational talent.” – The New Yorker

“Like the best of her past work, the resulting songs, including the raw kiss-off “Cry Cry Cry,” feel as heart-wrenching as they do anthemic.” – The New York Times

“King Princess is back and better than ever.” – Billboard 

“a winsome ’80s pop pastiche, brimming with effervescent production flourishes and topped off with an ultra-catchy hook” – Stereogum

“At 26 years old, Straus is at her best yet just barely getting started…[a] one-of-one rock-star” – Paste

“a work of art” – SPIN
