Üks moodsa alternatiivmuusika mõjukamaid ja innovaatilisemaid bände Mogwai annab 8. septembril 2025 Tallinnas Helitehases kontserdi. Ansambel on tuntud oma võimsate instrumentaalide, raputavate heliridade ja ebamaise ilu ning toore intensiivsuse dünaamilise vaheldumise poolest ning nad on post-rocki maastikku kujundanud juba kolm aastakümmet.
Ansambel moodustati 1995. aastal Glasgows ning sinna kuuluvad Stuart Braithwaite (kitarr, vokaalid), Barry Burns (kitarr, klaver, süntesaator, vokaalid), Dominic Aitchison (bass), and Martin Bulloch (trummid). Nende üksteist stuudioalbumit näitavad, et nad on inspiratsiooni saanud sellistelt suurkujudelt nagu Sonic Youth, My Bloody Valentine, Slint ja Philip Glass, luues saundi, mis on ühelt poolt eeterlik ja teisalt etteaimamatu. Nende 1997. aasta debüütplaadi “Mogwai Young Team” kohta öeldi: “Hämmastavalt dünaamiline… muundudes sujuvalt rahulikest, süngelt ilusatest helimaastikest ajutuimestava valge müra ning vasardavate riffideni.”
Nende eelviimane album “As The Love Continues” (2021) debüteeris ametlikus UK albumiedetabelis esikohal, võitis Mercury nominatsiooni ja Šoti aasta albumi auhinna. Lisaks teistele kriitikute kiidetud albumitele on Mogwai komponeerinud muusikat erinevatele projektidele Amazon Prime’is ja Apple TV-s.
Nende mõju ulatub muusikast kaugemale, mida ilmestab hästi esimene bändist tehtud dokumentaalfilm “Mogwai: If The Stars Had A Sound”. Selle režissööriks on pikaaegne kaastööline Antony Crook. Film esilinastus festivalil South by Southwest (SXSW) 2024. aastal ja seda näidatakse praegu erinevatel festivalidel üle kogu maailma.
Viimane album “The Bad Fire” tuli välja alles jaanuari lõpus ning on juba austajate ja kriitikute südamed võitnud. See tähendab, et fännidel on sügisesel kontserdil nautida nii nende klassikalisi töid kui ka seda, mida muusikud hiljuti on loonud.

On September 8, 2025, Mogwai, one of the most influential and innovative bands in modern alternative music, will perform at Helitehas in Tallinn. Known for their evocative instrumentals, sweeping crescendos, and dynamic shifts between ethereal beauty and raw intensity, Mogwai has been shaping the landscape of post-rock for three decades.
Formed in 1995 in Glasgow, Mogwai consists of Stuart Braithwaite (guitar, vocals), Barry Burns (guitar, piano, synthesizer, vocals), Dominic Aitchison (bass guitar), and Martin Bulloch (drums). Their ten studio albums have seen them draw inspiration from artists like Sonic Youth, My Bloody Valentine, Slint, and Philip Glass, creating a sound that is both atmospheric and unpredictable. Their 1997 debut "Mogwai Young Team" was hailed as "stunningly dynamic... shifting seamlessly from tranquil, bleakly beautiful soundscapes to brain-scrambling white noise and sledgehammer riffing".
One of their recent albums, “As The Love Continues” (2021), debuted at #1 on the Official UK Album Charts, earning a Mercury Prize nomination and winning the Scottish Album of the Year award. In addition to their critically acclaimed albums, Mogwai has also composed scores for projects with Amazon Prime and Apple TV+.
Their influence extends beyond music, as highlighted in the first-ever documentary about the band, “Mogwai: If The Stars Had A Sound”, directed by longtime collaborator Antony Crook. The film premiered at South by Southwest (SXSW) in 2024 and is currently being screened at festivals worldwide.
Their latest album “The Bad Fire” was released in the end of January, making this concert an unmissable opportunity for fans to experience both their classic work and what’s next for the band.
Pre-sale tickets for Live Nation Concert Club members will be available starting Wednesday, February 26, at 10:00 AM. General ticket sales begin on Friday, February 28, at 10:00 AM via the Piletilevi website and at sales points.
Mogwai has partnered with PLUS1 to support War Child. €1 from every ticket sold will help War Child to protect, educate, and stand up for the rights of children affected by war. More information: https://www.warchild.org.uk/
