The details

About this event

Modest Mouse, known for their innovative sound and captivating live performances, will be taking the stage at The Riverside Theater. With a career spanning decades, they continue to evolve, blending raw punk energy with experimental studio techniques. Their latest album, "The Golden Casket," explores deep themes with a unique sound that promises an engaging live experience.

The Riverside Theater provides an intimate setting that complements Modest Mouse's eclectic style. Fans can expect a night filled with both classic hits and new tracks that showcase the band's musical journey. This is a rare opportunity to see a band that has consistently pushed the boundaries of indie rock.

From the organizer

Having recently completed another successful run with Pixies and Cat Power, Modest Mouse continues to prove themselves to be one of the most consistent live acts today. Modest Mouse released their highly anticipated new album, The Golden Casket, on June 25, 2021 via Epic Records. The Golden Casket heralds another new chapter in the GRAMMY® Award-nominated multi platinum band’s unpredictable evolution. Produced with Dave Sardy and Jacknife Lee in Los Angeles and in Modest Mouse’s studio in Portland, the album hovers in the liminal space between raw punk power and experimental studio science, frontman Isaac Brock explores themes ranging from the degradation of our psychic landscapes and invisible technology, to fatherhood. The twelve tracks behave like amorphous organisms, undergoing dramatic mutations and mood swings that speak to the chronic tug-of-war between hope and despair that plays out in Brock’s head.
