Chinese Football, Wuhan indie rock band, live show at Hotel Vegas as part of their world touring program
Founded in Wuhan, China, Chinese Football blends the noisy legacy and resonant echoes of 1990s indie rock. Using a musical language that is simple yet intricate, smooth yet raw, they tell stories of passion, imagination, and defeat.
Since releasing their self-titled debut album in 2015, they have garnered recognition both at home and abroad, becoming a staple in live house venues and major music festivals across China with their energetic and dynamic live performances.
Following two mini-albums inspired by the "game of life" (Here comes a new challenger! in 2017 and Continue? in 2019), Chinese Football released their full-length album Win & Lose in late 2022, completing their "Game Trilogy."
In 2023, after a three-year delay, the band expanded their touring reach beyond Japan, Korea, and Southeast Asia to Europe, completing a 35-day, 22-show European tour. This included an appearance at the UK's math rock festival ArcTanGent.
In 2024, Chinese Football embarked on a new "Scenery" world tour, which included 40 shows across China before returning to Southeast Asia, Taiwan, and their first North American tour. Out of 12 North American shows, 10 were sold out. They were also invited to record live sessions with Audiotree and KEXP.
