Mogwai 2026 in Newcastle – The Glasshouse International Centre for Music

What is Mogwai?

Mogwai return to Gateshead on the latest leg of their triumphant European tour. Expect songs from across a discography that spans 30 years, including the 11th studio album The Bad Fire. Released this year to critical acclaim, The Bad Fire (a Scottish colloquialism for Hell) draws inspiration from the tough moments the band found themselves in following on from their chart-topping, Mercury nominated tenth album, 2021’s As The Love Continues. The Bad Fire is a collection of songs that forgo nostalgia and easy victories, once again finding Mogwai pushing forward with some of the most beautiful and explosive songs of their career. It is a record that retains Mogwai’s power whilst delving into fresh new territory for the band.
