Modest Mouse

Calling all Modest Mouse fans.The kings of alternative indie rock are floating onto the Odeon stage on April 27 2023 to share their genre-defying sound with Hobart for the first time in over a decade. 

Formed in 1993 in Issaquah, Washington, Modest Mouse has become the indie rock standard— one of few bands capable of treading the narrow path where massive popularity is possible without sacrificing longtime fans. 

The band released their first full-length album, This Is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About in 1996. With the release of their second album, The Lonesome Crowded West in 1997, the band's status reached new heights with a legion of fans and critical acclaim. In 2004 came the release of their breakthrough album, Good News For People Who Love Bad News, which included the hit "Float On" and has sold over 1.5 million copies and earned the band two Grammy nominations.
