Dream Wife is an electrifying trio known for their raucous blend of punk energy, raucous riffs, and catchy pop sensibilities. Formed in Brighton, UK, the band is composed of Icelandic singer Rakel Mjöll, guitarist Alice Go, and bassist Bella Podpadec. They burst onto the indie scene with their 2018 self-titled debut album, which showcased their fiery punk ethos and feminist lyrical themes. The band's name, a commentary on the objectification of women, encapsulates their mission to challenge societal norms through their music and electrifying live performances.

Building on the success of their debut, Dream Wife continued to capture the hearts of audiences with their relentless touring and vibrant stage presence. Their sophomore album, "So When You Gonna...", released in 2020, was both a critical and commercial success, noted for its empowering messages and the band's continued commitment to fostering a safe space for all at their gigs. The records 'Love You More' and 'Social Lubrication' extend their discography with the same infectious energy that has defined their career, while their live releases 'IRL (Live in London 2020)' and 'Cheap Thrills (Live in London 2020)' capture the raw and unfiltered essence of their potent live shows, underscoring why Dream Wife has become a beloved fixture on the indie rock landscape.
