Dream Wife mark International Women’s Day with cover of ‘All The Things She Said’
The trio have also just announced a UK headline tour for this Autumn.
To mark today being International Women’s Day, DIY faves Dream Wife have shared their spin on t.A.T.u.’s ‘All The Things She Said’ - a cover they recorded while touring their third studio album ‘Social Lubrication’ around Europe.
“The legacy of ‘All The Things She Said’ is a total paradox - being both one of the most high profile examples of queerbaiting in pop culture, and also one of the only positive depictions of same sex attraction us and our peers came across as youngsters”, the band have said of the track. “That and… it’s also an undeniable bop, and every time we play it live it absolutely pops off!”
They continue: “We recorded our cover of ‘All The Things She Said’ in a studio on the outskirts of Prague during our European headline tour. We had no idea what to expect from our first show in Prague and were thrilled to play to a room full of the most stylish lesbians (and lesbian adjacent people) we have ever seen. It felt cathartic, redemptive and very sexually charged to play this track live for such a receptive audience - as Queer people, for Queer people.”
Alongside the new release, the Wives have also confirmed that they’ll be hitting the road once again this Autumn for a UK headline tour, after playing a run of UK and EU festivals in the summer.
