THE WOMBATS - A Guide to Love Loss And Desperation 20th Anniversary
About This Event
Live event at Brooklyn Paramount
About A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation
“A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation” arrives at Brooklyn Paramount as a live rock/pop bill led by The Wombats, with support from The Lathums. The set leans into songs that circle romance, breakup aftershocks, and the quieter panic of trying to start over, framed by a loud-band format rather than confessional stage talk. As far as public records show, there’s no specific NYC premiere history tied to this title, but its themes land cleanly in a city built on reinvention. One fair observation: the material works best when it keeps its irony on a short leash.
About the Artists
The Wombats
The Wombats are a Liverpool-formed indie rock trio, active since the early 2000s, led by songwriter Matthew Murphy alongside Tord Øverland Knudsen and Dan Haggis. Their work sits between rock and pop structures, built for tight, rhythmic band interplay rather than studio gloss.
The Lathums
The Lathums are a rock/pop group known for tightly structured guitar songs and plainspoken vocals. Their trajectory has been shaped in part by touring slots with peers such as The Wombats, including appearances tied to **THE WOMBATS - A Guide to Love Loss And Desperation 20th Anniversary** at Brooklyn Paramount in New York City.
