Garage rock power trio Guitar Wolf toured Europe last March and April, with shows in The Netherlands, United Kingdom, France, Spain and Germany to show off their loud and noise-influenced punk music. The band calls themselves Japan’s greatest “Jet” Rock’n’Roll band, with the origin of Jet attributed to the sound of a jet plane, and Joan Jett as an important musical and stylistic influence.

Guitar Wolf (ギターウルフ) loves to tour Europe, as they come back almost every year to share their extensive music catalog with their fans and convincing new people to become fans of the rocking trio, while rocking in leather (jackets) and with sunglasses on. During these shows they are sure blasting the ears of your head with their loud “Jet” Rock’n’Roll music.
