Mercury Rev perform from the album Deserter’s Songs.
7pm: Doors open
TBC: 1st artist onstage
TBC: Mercury Rev
We are currently waiting for the finalised schedule for this performance and will update this page as soon as possible (this is normally on the afternoon of the performance).
Formed in Buffalo, New York in the late 1980’s, Mercury Rev have continued to surprise and enlighten listeners for over a decade and a half with their maverick musical explorations.
Mercury Rev began recording what was to become Deserter’s Songs during 1997 at Dave Fridmann’s Tarbox Recording Studio. It was released in 1998 to worldwide acclaim. On this influential album, Mercury Rev reinvented itself with sweeping orchestrations and heartfelt lyrics. It would herald a rebirth for the band and was chosen as album of the year by the NME, MOJO and many other music publications. The songs Goddess on a Hiway, Holes, and Opus 40 have become classics which have taken on a mythical life all their own.
