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.

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.

It’s a blast from the past! Thanks to the restorative powers of the Wayback Machine, we have unearthed what appears to be the very first webpage for Mew from the year 1997. Within we can see evidence that the guys were sweet, adorable, and weird, even when they were barely in their 20’s (and Silas

In this month’s issue of Euroman, Mew put on yet another fashion show. (You may recall there was a similar article last year.) The magazine lists them as number 8 in “Denmark’s Best Dressed.” The print article, covering a total of 4 pages, showcases the band’s clothing choices in both rich color and elegant black-and-white

These two tweets are the ones we’ve been waiting for: What began a couple of years ago… has now been recorded AND mixed. Then you need the artwork for the album (by m/m Paris, of course) and all the logistics, promotion with record labels etcetera etcetera, but the SONGS are now finished. So, we have

Copenhagen, Denmark (August 1st, 2014) Just a few days after announcing the Winter Tour for this November, Mew – quite surprisingly – let us know that there will be another summer show on top of Northside Festival where fans saw Johan Wohlert on stage for the first time after an eight-year-long break. At first, looking

Mew has announced to be playing at this Summer’s Vanguard Music Festival in early August. This new festival will be held for the second time this year (in Copenhagen) and it is expected that the same new songs can be heard here as at Northside Festival earlier this month. Tickets for these two-day festivities (August
