Pixies have gained their fan base since the late 80s influencing artists like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Radiohead, the Strokes, Weezer, among many. Coming from different music inspirations such as punk rock, religious music, folk and country, Pixies was formed in 1986, creating songs with stranger lyrics and touching on unusual topics. They grew popularity in the US, but even more in Europe. The band went through breakups and solo projects but eventually reunited in 2003. To date, they continue to widen their audience with the inclusion of the younger generations who enjoy their sound which is considered unorthodox. With seven studio albums, they have placed their name among the all-time favorite alternative rock bands. Their music is known for being both quiet and loud at the same time. Each Pixies show is one of a kind as the band plays whatever they want in no fixed order.
The GRAMMY Award-nominated Modest Mouse is an American rock band formed in 1993. Inspired during a heavy metal show, the band started with Isaac Brock, Eric Judy, and Jeremiah Green. Their music, as admitted by the band, is strongly influenced by Pixies. “Float On” is considered to be their biggest hit, topping the US Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart and was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Rock Song in 2005.
Opening the concert is American singer-songwriter Cat Power, who is most recognized for her eighth studio album, Jukebox, which was published by Matador Records on January 22, 2008. The album reached its highest position at number 12 on the Billboard 200 album list and number 4 on the French album chart.
The concert series is a combined celebration for these bands. Modest Mouse will commemorate the 20th anniversary of their beloved album Good News for People Who Love Bad News. Cat Power is continuously gaining popularity with her 2022 full-length album covering Bob Dylan's 1966 performance at the Royal Albert Hall. With the addition of bassist Paz Lenchantin, who formally took over Kim Deal's position in 2016, the Pixies continue with their style evolution.
With the three biggest names in indie rock on one stage, this concert is definitely one for the books!
