The Australian musician has stated that he will play his last gig as Wolfmother on April 28, when the band supports Aerosmith in Melbourne.

"For the last three years I’ve performed as Wolfmother, and I don't feel comfortable about it. Chris Ross, who played bass and keys in the first line-up when we started, he came up with that band name. That name was for me, Chris and drummer Myles Heskett. It became Wolfmother. Because of the success of the name, there was pressure then to call yourself Wolfmother. But it felt weird" says Stockdale.

The band has since changed lineups twice, with Stockdale the only original member.

He will release his solo album 'Keep Moving' on June 10. The first single, 'Long Way To Go' can be viewed below.
