Wallows (composed of Dylan Minnette, Braeden Lemasters, and Cole Preston) returned in 2024 with their highly anticipated third studio album, Model, which saw them reunite with GRAMMY Award-winning producer John Congleton (St. Vincent, Sharon Van Etten). Recorded at Los Angeles’ legendary Sunset Sound, the album was met by critical applause from the likes of CLASH, proclaiming Model “a no-skips record,” ROLLING STONE heralding it as their “arena-ready third album,” and DORK who stated the album is “a stunning, natural evolution into their next chapter… guaranteed to reward on each and every listen.” Model includes the band’s biggest streaming debut for a single to date and their first song to hit the Top 40 chart in 'Calling After Me', as well as the singles 'Your Apartment', 'You (Show Me Where My Days Went)', 'Bad Dream' and 'A Warning'. Not slowing down, the band kicked off 2025 with the release of “Your New Favorite Song” in January and followed with 'Coffin Change' which was heralded as BBC Radio 1’s Hottest Record. The new singles are a part of Wallows’ EP, More, released in March.
In March 2022, the band released their sophomore album, Tell Me That It’s Over, produced by 3x Grammy Award-winner Ariel Rechtshaid (Vampire Weekend, Haim, Adele). TMTIO saw Wallows continuing on their ever-evolving journey of sonic exploration, fusing a vast array of musical ideas – from lo-fi post-punk and indie-folk to early ‘90s dance-pop psychedelia – into their own one-of-a-kind creative vision. TMTIO marked the full-length follow-up to Wallows’ hugely popular 2019 debut album, Nothing Happens, also produced by John Congleton. The album, which includes the 3x Platinum single 'Are You Bored Yet? (feat. Clairo)' proved to be one of that year’s highest streamed debuts and has since gone on to be certified Gold in the United States.

my first wallows gig, they were amazing !!! hoping they come back to manchester next year! truly the best concert i've been to :)
I went to night 2 in Manchester and I loved it so much it was the best night of my life and my first ever concert, I keep reminiscing and dreaming about it I need them to come back for part 2!!! I miss it too much 😭
I love the Wallows and listening to them live in Alexandar Palace was truly a night to remember and left me wanting to relive the moment again. Will come back!
The atmosphere was absolutely amazing easily one of my favourite nights ever and one of my favourite concerts. The adrenaline of waiting for them to come on stage and waiting for the sheet to drop will be a memory forever. I've been waiting for this concert for seven months and it's crazy how it's already over, I can definitely say it was worth the wait.
First time seeing them live. Went with a friend (their first ever concert experience). Crowd were brilliant, Wallows were perfect. Everything I was expecting and more. Will definitely go to see them again whenever I can
I want to go back righty now this is horrid take me back there right now Edinburgh n1 lets gauuurrrr
4th time seeing wallows and they're always amazing. Fantastic atmosphere and they make every night special with impromptu set list changes and fan requests. Very interact with the audience and it feels like absolutely everyone in the crown knows every single word. I've seen a lot of concerts but noone has had a better response than wallows. Can't wait to see them again.
Only my second concert ever but I must say it was such an amazing and unforgettable experience. Wallows are SO amazing live it's unreal!!! Definitely want to go to another one of their concerts. My only regret was not trying to get closer to the barrier and arriving earlier. The lights synced to the songs were just 👌 and all of the band is just so 😍. The venue was also amazing!
An amazing night great venue the band was just incredible they are great performers as well as fantastic musicians best night ever!
I went to the Birmingham one and it was the bestt I loved it so much everyone there was so sweet. I miss wallows alreadyyy!
