joel is whispering to theo and then theo just saves ellie from speaking. they are all true friends

Very protective I'd say over Ellie like a sister really.

Theo is the best most bad ass dude right there. I loved that

[@geetarbube]

Annelie Se. Theo is very outgoing and cool. Had the pleasure of meeting him and having a smoke after a show in DC IN 2015.

[@rufashaochicken]

I went to see their show this August in Bejing and after show theo just casually smoked there and I took a selfie with him! very easy-going lad indeed!

[@benjaminblake164]

I'm glad this award continues to go to artists that show creativity and not just the big names. Alt - J Benjamin Clementine Wolf Alice They're just my picks from the last few year's winners. They deserve it so much more than generic pop that offers nothing new.

[@elvis_chen]

Best speech ever, and BBC has balls to not beep the F words. Well done you all!

Refreshing to think that the best from them might still be yet to come . Well done Wolf Alice , thanks loads for Ally Pally !!

[@cesul10]

Tom Warner I was there too. was amazing

[@hawaiiguykailua6928]

Since the first whispers of this band back in 2012 or so on NME I have been in love with their sound and chemistry. SO happy for the well earned recognition. Not many bands out there who've cut through the myriad of sameness to do what they wish, make beautiful diverse music and have it seem effortless. Wolf Alice has been a gift to me in a sea of fuckoffs all throughout western government war mongering.

[@seamusdevlin3626]

Caught WA in Dublin. Absolutely fantastic live. Well deserved !!

I still love how they spent basically all the money in one night at the pub.

[@VIDS2013]

Nah. A couple of years later, Joel said they still hadn't spend it.

[@sofiasegantini9796]

Wow...I first saw them live in 2013 at Dingwalls in Camden and there must have been no more than 100 people (half of whom were probably friends of theirs) so this really feels like your kids’ graduation day 😂 well deserved guys!!
