Wolf Alice were the big winners at the NME Awards.

They took home the best track award for Giant Peach and best live band, having been nominated for six gongs.

Picking up the best track award, Theo Ellis said: "I can't believe we just won an award nominated against some of our favourite people."

They were up against Coldplay, The Libertines, The Weeknd, Skepta and Foals but it was The Maccabees who beat them to win best British band.

They thanked "everyone who has cared for us over the past 10 years".
