Mogwai head to Australia and NZ in 2015
Six years after their last headline tour of Australia and five years since their Harvest Festival appearances, Scotland's sonic-architects Mogwai finally return to Australia for an all headline tour.
As befits their wide-screen nature the six-piece Glaswegian outfit won't be doing things by halves either, taking in a headline spot at Adelaide Festival's Thebarton Theatre, debut performances at both the Sydney Opera House Concert Hall and Melbourne's famed Hamer Hall, a return slot at the Tivoli in Brisbane PLUS the band's first ever visit to New Zealand - how's that for stamping your authority!
Almost 20 years since their inception Mogwai have carved out a niche entirely their own - often copied but never bettered - that has seen the band release eight (largely) instrumental and hugely influential studio albums (including this years UK top ten debut Rave Tapes), live albums, compilations, film soundtracks (including Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait and The Fountain) while most recently Mogwai were commissioned to provide the score for SBS TV series The Returned aka Les Revenant.
Live, Mogwai's shows are legendary taking the audience from a whisper to a scream, from darkness to light as wave after wave of sound comes crashing around them taking the listener on the most epic of journeys.
Tickets for this most anticipated of tours are on sale Fri 7th November (except where noted).
Don't miss Mogwai live this February and March.
