This will be the most exciting year in the Mew world in a long time. If ever? We recently added a Taiwanese concert (to be held in late March) for our Events-page, but more shows will be announced shortly, as Mew will tour so much this year. So, stay tuned. This is the year when […]

Odense, Denmark (November 18th, 2014) Going to a Mew concert these days has become much like participating in a lottery. They have started shuffling the songs of the setlists quite a bit. They have a back catalogue big enough to pull it off as well. When you leave out a single like Introducing Palace Players

Herning, Denmark (November 15th, 2014) Last time that Mew played in the small town of Herning was way back in 2000. I’ve never been to Fermaten, but I had high hopes based on descriptions I had found about the venue online. I arrived approximately twenty minutes before the doors opened. Only four people had arrived before

Aarhus, Denmark (November 14th, 2014) Mew is one of those bands that can step up on the stage and get everybody to turn their focus towards them. Nobody at the back of the crowd is small talking. Nobody looks at their smartphones – except me – for I had to take some notes. They capture

Copenhagen, Denmark (November 13th, 2014) The Danish capital is the city where I’ve seen Mew live the most. Duh!!! Outside my own hometown Helsinki, it’s the Nordic beauty I am most familiar with, yet I still always get lost at some point of the evening. Those top-secret nightly strolls are some of my favourite things…

Debaser Medis / Stockholm, Sweden (November 7, 2014) We reached the venue just before doors opened and the queue was not very long at all. We got in quickly and were able to secure a spot in the second row, behind some other die-hard fans who had traveled to Stockholm from all over the world.

Helsinki, Finland (November 5th, 2014) Helsinki. The Finnish capital that always gives Mew a warm welcome. So, going in I was thinking that it might be a long show, for they would have to play quite a few new songs, but also the classics. No one could have expected a whopping 123-minute show, though. That’s

Mew have announced they will play their first American show in 6 years, which will take place in March 2015 at the SXSW Music Festival. (Fans may recall Mew were slated to play the Coachella Festival in April of 2010, but the show was ultimately cancelled.) South by Southwest (SXSW) is an annual set of

Mew will return to Roskilde Festival next Summer. The largest (and second oldest) annual Nordic rock music festival announced their first nine acts today and Mew is even featured in the kick-start video, available on YouTube. The band has played at this festival many times before, but in 2012 they performed on the main stage
