Wheatus’ debut single ‘Teenage Dirtbag’ cracked the Top 40 BBC Official Sales Chart for a second time in March 2011 and again this year in April – TEN YEARS after its debut at #2 on the same chart. To date their first record has sold more than five million copies worldwide. Any manager or record label would be happy to tout those stats to the press but Wheatus have remained unsigned and unmanaged for the last eight years.
Wheatus continue to write, record and tour 15 years after their inception, having released five studio albums since 2000 and currently in pre-production for their sixth.
Now Wheatus are heading to Australia for their ‘Still A Teenage Dirtbag’ tour.
