Mickey 9s
GBP15.00
Anybody who knows the Scottish music scene will tell you that Mickey 9s are one of the most exciting bands to see live. The irreverent four piece from Glasgow combine elements of dance, punk and disco into a blistering, genre-defying groove that sends crowds into a frenzy. They are previous Best Live Act Winners at the Scottish Alternative Music Awards.
After releasing their third album Modern Kunst in 2021, Mickey 9s found that their heaviest work to date was also the most popular amongst their (now cult) following. Since that album’s release, they have had five sold-out in a row Glasgow gigs in The Garage, Room 2 (twice), King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut and SWG3 Warehouse, two tours around the country and they have now turned their attention towards creating new music for their fans after playing festivals in 2023 across Scotland and England; Eden Festival, Kelburn Garden Party, ButeFest, Solfest and Outwith Festival.
The band released standalone singles in the first half of 2023, ‘Straight White Male’, ‘Screen Time’ and an amped-up cover of Gang of Four's classic 'At Home He's a Tourist'. The band are now focusing on album number four, Impressive Snake, due for release on 03/05/24, the day before the Glasgow album launch gig (to be announced), and have released the following singles from it in 2023; ‘Impossibility’, ‘Dream’ and ‘Moments Go’. The latter was prestigiously chosen by BBC Radio Scotland to be their final Single Of The Week of 2023 on The Afternoon Show. Those new album singles will be followed up in 2024 with the releases of ‘Waves of Love’ (1st February) and ‘Who Do You Love?’ (22nd February) before the release of Impressive Snake on Friday 3rd May with an album launch party in Saint Luke’s, Glasgow on Saturday 4th May. Tickets are on sale now for that with Gigs in Scotland.
The band will be on the road playing multiple towns and cities across Scotland from February onwards on their World Tour of Scotland 2024 and will have another busy festival season with Silverburn Festival and MugStock Festival already announced and more festival announcements to follow it.
