Wanderers have kick-started their year with brand new track ‘Loco’, a breezy blues-rock number that steadily builds into a raunchy, soulful jam.

The track serves as the opening track from the Adelaide outfit’s upcoming EP Something For Distraction, and the second single released so far, following on from the mid-2016 drop ‘In Your Fire’ and its killer throwback video.

You may know the rootsy trio by their former moniker ‘Wasted Wanderers’, but 2017 sees them ditching the alliteration as they continue to develop their signature groove. Having spent much of 2016 honing their craft on the live stage, they were well-prepped when it came time to head into the studio, and there’s a definite confidence in their craft to be heard on this one.

With a fistful of tracks tucked into their belts they’ll be hitting the road for a national tour throughout March and April, so if this is your flavour of jam be sure to check out the dates below.
