Wolf Alice delivered a surprise cover of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" during their homecoming performance at London's Finsbury Park on Sunday.

The concert featured opening performances by The Last Dinner Party, Lykke Li and other artists before Wolf Alice took the stage.

Along with the Nirvana cover, the band performed songs spanning all four of their studio albums, including tracks from their latest release, The Clearing, which arrived in 2025.

On Thursday, Wolf Alice also released the new song "Gospel Oak." The track will appear on The Clearing: B Sides, a collection of previously unreleased recordings from The Clearing sessions, scheduled for release on Aug. 21.

Looking ahead, Wolf Alice will play a one-night performance in New York City on July 29 before appearing at festivals including Lollapalooza, Shaky Knees and All Things Go DC. The band is also scheduled to open select dates on Olivia Rodrigo's U.S. tour.
