Mogwai is a post-rock band founded in Glasglow, UK in 1995. Their namesake comes from the creatures in the film “Gremlins.”

The original trio Stuart Braithwaite, Dominic Aitchinson, and Martin Bulloch joined forces in 1991 and began putting out music a few years later. Their single “Tuner”/”Lower” caught the attention of the public in 1996, along with the song “Summer,” which earned a mention in the British publication, New Music Express (NME).

Mogwai’s debut album “Mogwai Young Team” was released in 1997 with the joint efforts of additional members: guitarist John Cummings and drummer Brendan O’Hare. Their work hit #75 on the UK Albums Chart. Musical influences for Mogwai include The Cure, Joy Division, My Bloody Valentine and post-rock band Tortoise. Their music is characterized by extended instrumental guitar solos in post-rock style.

Mogwai’s sophomore album “Come On Die Young” came out in 1998 and upped the band’s popularity to #29 on the UK charts. The band brought on Barry Burns as a permanent member and featured Scottish violinist Luke Sutherland. At the turn of the century, Mogwai released their highest grossing album “Rock Action” which also became the name of their record label. The album featured guest vocalists and experimented with electronic elements while simultaneously staying true to their signature lengthy instrumental pieces (one song “My Father the King” is twenty minutes long!).

“Happy Songs for Happy People” was Mogwai’s first album to break into U.S. territory charting at #13 on the Billboard Indie Albums in 2003. Mogwai broke into the film industry in 2006 by providing the soundtrack to the movie “Zidane: A 20th Century Portrait.” Mogwai’s music is distributed through multiple international labels: firstly through Glasgow label Chemikal Underground, American labels Matador and Sub Pop, UK’s Play It Again Sam, and their own Rock Action Records.

Live reviews

I have had the good fortune to see Mogwai a number of times in a bunch of different places. I saw them at coachella 2004, I saw them once on a boat in Sydney Harbour. SF, Boston, LA, Seattle and NYC. The show on Monday night was in all seriousness one of the best shows I have ever seen in my life. Part of that is likely attributable to the sound at the opera house, but that is not the whole story. As a band they were just astoundingly tight. When you have a wall of sound coming at you that is likely louder than a 747 taking off and you can still hear an intrigue guitar line in the middle of it you know you are seeing something special. For a band that has 20 years of tracks to pull from they clearly took the time to put together a great setlist. Not only was every song amazing but they flowed perfectly. And they played christmas steps one of my favourite tracks. Hearing christmas steps in the opera house at mind numbing volume will be one of the highlights of any show I've ever seen.

If you have not seen them on this tour or even before. I assure you that you will not be disappointed, they are at the height of their powers and one of the best live bands in the world. It is not to be missed.

Report as inappropriate

Mogwai, the Scottish post rock band have gained cult-like icon status in their 20 year career. Their experimental, largely instrumental based sound has inspired a number of contemporaries and has seen their fan base explode in numbers.

They were billed as lake stage headliners at the 2014 Latitude Festival and saw revellers from across the site flock to their feet to view the weird and wonderful stage show. The band steps out modestly and taking to their instruments there is an electric atmosphere in the festival field. They begin with a deafening version of 'Heard About You Last Night' with heavy bass tones that makes the ground beneath your feet shake and your hairs stand up on edge.

The group hand picks music from almost all of their eight albums and delight fans with huge renditions of 'How to Be a Werewolf' and 'Mexican Grand Prix' which are both accompanied with a mind bending light show. The music, the atmosphere, the stage and the light come together for a cathartic finale of 'Batcat' and leave the spectators talking about this festival highlight all weekend.

It is fair to accuse Mogwai of setting the mood for their show; slow, melodic guitar play highlighted by forays into the heavier, more metallic side of music.

Their songwriting is top notch, with tracks like "Cody" that could break your heart with its tender melody. However, most folks go for the wall of sound that this band travels with from Glasgow. Check out "The Precipice" or "Rats of the Capital" for evidence... but even if you do, this will not prepare you for this band in person.

They play with passion and diligence... they also manage to f*ck it up on the regular. I've seen folks cover their ears cause it got too heavy, definitely proof that you're listening to the right band of Scots.

They usually play intimate venues, but can more than hold their own at any festival; a great band to take in live, if you ask me.

Have seen Mogwai approx 10 times. This latest show (Toronto Jan 2017) was a screening of Atomic with a live performance of the film score.

Mogwai, as always, sounded fantastic, and delivered a strong performance of a powerful soundtrack, with some embellishments particularly at finale.

The film, on the other hand, is amateurish and disappointing. It was a visual distraction from a beautiful musical soundscape and was very detrimental to the overall experience. Some might find it depressing and/or biased as well, depending on your level of awareness regarding the history of nuclear science, power, weaponization, and resulting consequences.

In summary, if Mogwai are playing their studio/concert material, amazing act - definitely worth seeing! I'd skip the Atomic screenings tour though, and wait for a real concert.

I traveled from Brighton to Edinburgh just for this gig so I was really looking forward to it but also a little nervous as I had never seen them live before and didn't want to be disappointed, I needn't have worried! I thought I had been to my best gig of the year when I went to see Thee Oh Sees in July but with no disrespect intended, I was wrong. I knew tracks like remurdered, rano piano, Mogwai fear Satan and Like Herod but hearing them live was a whole new experience. They absolutely nailed every single track and the crowd loved it all. Mogwai's music is the sonic equivalent to being hit in the head with a large axe. If you do not like very, VERY loud music this might not be the band for you but for everyone else GO SEE THEM!

Slow Burning through to glorious finale

Blighted by some poor sound- there was appalling resonance from the bass- was a slow start but as they moved through the gears and the gig progressed exploded into a maelstrom of aural assault culminating in a wonderful coruscating “My Father My King” encore. Highlights along the way were “ Old Poisons” “Remurdered” and a sublime “Mogwai fear Satan”. I saw this gig with a newbie and he was blown away. Good to see Martin back on drums for the encore though I’ve really enjoyed the energy Cat has bought to the band. Any chance of a dual drum approach in the future a la Radiohead??

The location was great, though a bit difficult to reach with public transportation, especially the way home after the event was a bit of a hassle.

The support act (didn't bother to recall/look up their name) was bad. Felt like a one trick pony, playing basically the same song about 15(?) times.

Mogwai themselves had great energy, but the sound sucked. It's sad to see them furiously work their guitars but only get to hear some fuzzy (not in a good way), indistinguishable mash. Liking the melodic intricacy in their studio tracks this was disappointing.

I've been a fan of Mogwai for 20 years and saw them for the first time at this concert, they were,as expected awesome and me and my wife thourghly enjoyed it. Great set list and light show! Top class by The Young Team. Also they were the loudest band I have EVER seen. Would go again immediately!!!

Absolutely profound and timely show- poignant in its venue, 6th & I Historic Synagogue in Washington, DC, terrifying in light of the US's strange political week. The show delivered chills and truly breathless moments with Mogwai's epic and important score. Wow! A lifetime experience.

Easily the best and the loudest concert I have ever been to! The amount of noise these five people make on the stage is unreal, also the venue seemed like a perfect choice - a brick wall setting, not too large but still plenty of room to enjoy! Would love to see them again sometime

Mogwai Concert Tickets

Get Mogwai tickets now to see an amazing performance live by a great entertainer. Named after the furry creature in the 1984 film Gremlins, Scottish post-rockers Mogwai acted as surly, outsiders to the mid-1990s Brit-pop craze with their sprawling soundscapes and experimental guitar noise. Formed in Glasgow in 1995 by guitarist Dominic Aitchison, singer and guitarist Stuart Braithwaite, and drummer Martin Bulloch, the trio added John Cummings, a third guitarist, before making their live debut.

They quickly established themselves as cult heroes with 1997’s Mogwai Young Team and 1999’s Come On Die Young. Favorites of Radio 1 DJ John Peel, the band recruited Gruff Rhys of Super Furry Animals, Gary Lightbody of Snow Patrol and David Pajo of Slint to provide vocals on the third album, 2001’s Rock Action before creating the soundtrack to Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait (2006), an art-house film of French footballer Zinedine Zindane.

The atmospheric instrumentals of 2007’s The Hawk Is Howling and the guttural chaos of 2010’s Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will inspired the likes of Broken Social Scene, Metronomy and Foals, and solidified Mogwai as a keystone of British experimental rock. Nearly 20 years into their career, 2014’s Rave Tapes became their first album to crack the top 10 in the UK, and 2017’s Every Country’s Sun topped it by hitting number 6. Four years passed before the release of 2021’s As the Love Continues. Get your Mogwai tickets today!

P.A.K Records presents

Event details.

MOGWAI 

2024 AUSTRALIAN TOUR

P.A.K proudly presents Scottish post-rock monarchs Mogwai bringing their epic live show back to Adelaide for the first time in nine years. This comes in partnership with Mistletone who are bringing the band to Australia for the first time since 2017 for a string of performances across the country.

Unleashing their colossal sound in all its beauty and fury, the tour will feature Mogwai’s UK 2021 number one record As The Love Continues , as well as classic Mogwai tracks from their innovative career.

One of the best loved and most ground-breaking post-rock bands of the past three decades, Mogwai’s psychedelic adventures on the furthest frontiers of noise have earned them a reputation as vast as their thunderous music.

Though they may be placed in the “file under post rock” corner, As The Love Continues  shows that they get broader and broader in their vision. Like Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and PJ Harvey, Mogwai remain a band whose favourite album continues to be their latest one. Ten records in and still no disappointments or mistaken creative left turns. You may know what to expect from Mogwai, but you will never get the same.

Mogwai are still offering solace from the mundane. They remain a transcendent soundtrack to whatever movie you are making in your head. The band has also created many acclaimed films and television soundtracks, most recently the Apple TV+ show Black Bird.

Mogwai founder Stuart Braithwaite recently published his acclaimed autobiography, Spaceships Over Glasgow: Mogwai and Misspent Youth. As Braithwaite recalls: “We heard the first Arab Strap album and thought, ‘fucking hell we can’t mess about’” and 25 years later, Mogwai still aren’t messing about.

The Mogwai formula (surfing a wave of instrumental intensity, not to go into too much detail) not only holds out, but still causes small earthquakes: their latest album, As The Love Continues  reached number one in the British charts to everyone's surprise, including theirs. Because although the Scots have modulated their proposal towards (ahem) pop, whilst avoiding falling into the noise for the sake

of noise trap (now there are also voices, synthesizers, harmonic games on the menu...) they have not now, suddenly, become radio friendly. Quite simply, the rock sphere has spun, spun and spun and, in the end, it has come to the realization that Mogwai were not just on the axis, they were the axis.

How much are Kentucky Derby tickets? See 2024 Kentucky Derby prices compared to Taylor Swift's Eras Tour.

The 2024 Kentucky Derby is fast approaching and around 150,000 people are expected to be at Churchill Downs for the most exciting two minutes in sports.

The annual event tends to have a significant impact on Louisville's economy, bringing in large amounts of tourists and generating over $400 million in economic impact in 2023, as previously reported by The Courier Journal. With 2024 marking the 150th "Run for the Roses," this year's impact could be even greater.

But how much does it actually cost to attend the Kentucky Derby? Is it an affordable event for the average person? How does it compare to Taylor Swift's Eras Tour? Here's what we know:

According to Ticket Smarter, ticket prices for the 2024 Kentucky Derby on May 4 range from $110 to upwards of $11,000 depending on the seat location, type of admission and other factors. The average ticket cost for a single race day from April 27 through Derby is nearly $730, tripling prices from 2014.

Can the average person afford the Kentucky Derby?

According to Forbes, a single-person, three-night vacation in 2023 cost around $1,390 for flights, lodging, car rentals and meals. In 2022, the average hotel cost in Louisville per night around Derby was over $670, meaning a three-night stay would cost over $2,000 on lodging alone. Not to mention, tickets for the race track, meals, transportation and other needs.

Impact of Kentucky Derby on Louisville's economy

In 2023, Churchill Downs contributed more than $4.3 million in tax revenue to the state on Derby day alone, and roughly $1.1 million in tax revenue from Oaks Day, according to The Courier Journal.

Concert ticket system is 'broken,' say artists. But some experts say targeting resellers isn't the fix

More than 250 artists signed a letter thursday calling out 'predatory' re-sellers.

Social Sharing

The way concert tickets are sold is "broken," according to a new letter signed by more than 250 major recording artists including Billie Eilish, Blue Rodeo and Fall Out Boy.

The letter, signed Thursday, voiced support for the Fans First Act, a bill pending in the U.S. Senate that would prevent speculative ticket sales when a seller does not have a ticket. It also would require "all-in" pricing, outlaw deceptive websites and strengthen enforcement of penalties for bot usage to scoop up tickets.

"We are joining together to say that the current system is broken," the artists said in a letter to congressional sponsors of the legislation.

"Predatory re-sellers and secondary platforms engage in deceptive ticketing practices to inflate ticket prices and deprive fans of the chance to see their favourite artists at a fair price.

"Predatory resellers should not be more profitable than the people dedicating their lives to their art."

Other prominent artists who signed include Cyndi Lauper,  Aimee Mann, Indigo Girls, Lorde, Green Day and Duran Duran.

• Analysis Quebec wants to stop sky-high prices from ticket resellers. It won't be easy
• Music fans won't get a break on concert ticket prices in 2024, according to experts

"Buying a ticket to see your favourite artist in concert is like going through a gauntlet for too many Americans," said U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, who is a co-sponsor of the bill, in a statement on her website . "This is hurting music fans and it's hurting artists."

It's an issue lawmakers are looking at in Canada , too. Measures such as more transparency, prohibiting bots, and strengthening penalties have already been adopted in some provinces, CBC previously reported . In last week's  federal budget , the Liberal government pledged to work with provinces to crack down on "fraudulent resellers and reseller practices which unfairly drive up prices." 

Ticket resale prices keep rising. What's Quebec doing to crack down?

But as ticket prices soar , and resale prices soar even higher (tickets for Taylor Swift's Nov. 14 Toronto show go as high as $11,267 a pair on StubHub, for instance), some experts argue that the letter — and the U.S. bill — are unlikely to change much for fans. And they say targeting resellers isn't necessarily the fix.

The perception is often that artists feel they're being exploited or taken advantage of by the ticketing industry, said Shiraz Mawani, an independent ticketing consultant in Toronto. And he says he can empathize with their frustration.

"But at the same time, it's difficult to find a solution that really works. Because, at the end of the day, it's a supply issue," Mawani said.

"There are only so many seats available."

Sales are booming

Live music sales are booming, according to Live Nation, which owns Ticketmaster. Earlier in April, the company said in a filing with regulators that 2023 brought all-time highs in both attendance and ticket sales . This was powered by big stadium tours from artists including Taylor Swift and Beyoncé, Live Nation said.

Economists have predicted that, this year, music fans will continue to see high prices for big-name artists .

One problem with the letter signed by the musicians calling for ticket reform is that it's directed at resellers such as StubHub instead of Ticketmaster and Live Nation, which hold the market share and "considerable control" in the industry, said Timothy Dewhirst, a professor of marketing and consumer studies at the University of Guelph.

"It's become pretty pricey to deal with Ticketmaster for a lot of the leading concerts that are out there," Dewhirst told CBC News.

Some artists have been vocally critical of Ticketmaster, calling out their extra fees and dynamic ticket pricing. Last year, The Cure's Robert Smith convinced Ticketmaster to refund some of what he said were the "unduly high" fees for tickets for the band's U.S. tour.

Some fans had complained that the fees essentially doubled the price of their tickets. In a post on X last year , formerly Twitter, Smith wrote that he was "sickened."

That was a "pretty notable gesture" on Smith's part, Dewhirst said, but it's not one he sees some of the major artists out there, such as Taylor Swift, replicating. 

"People are willingly paying the high prices. She probably figures, 'well, people are willingly able to do that, that's the going rate,' so to speak," he said.

Fix the tix.

Venues and artist groups have formed a coalition called Fix the Tix, led by the National Independent Venue Association (NIVA), that is pushing for passage of the Fans First Act, which they say offers the strongest protections for ticket buyers.

Stephen Parker, executive director of NIVA, said that bill is "the most fan- and artist-friendly ticketing legislation that Congress has ever introduced."

"It makes illegal the abusive, predatory behaviour from predatory resale platforms and ticket brokers," he said, and also calls for a national evaluation of the ticket resale market.

• Online scammers making it a cruel summer for Taylor Swift fans

But going after re-sellers, or more specifically, bad actors in the reseller market, won't fix the ticket price problem, said Mawani, the independent ticketing consultant. And limiting reselling could actually limit the supply of tickets for people who aren't able to buy them during the pre-sale or the moment they became available online, he added.

"This act that they're trying to push through does very little on the Ticketmaster side," he said.

"It could be a step in the right direction in terms of continuing the conversation around tickets and resale... but I don't know if this specific bill is going to be the one that's going to change the world."

Ticketmaster told Reuters it backed bans on speculative sales and deceptive websites, as well as better enforcement of anti-bot legislation.
