Check out indie rockers Modest Mouse play at Riviera Theatre in Chicago. Their upcoming performance is set for Friday, Dec. 9. The show is presented as part of rock radio station 93XRT’s Holiday Jam Series, and celebrates the 25th anniversary of The Lonesome Crowded West.

Modest Mouse’s most recent album The Golden Casket dropped in June, 2021. The LP earned generally favorable reviews and hit U.S. charts. Prior to the album, Modest Mouse released singles “We Are Between” and “Leave A Light On” in May as well as “The Sun Hasn’t Left” in June. Though the band may play newer tracks at their upcoming performance, the tour is dedicated to the anniversary of their second studio album.

The Washington band formed in 1992, five years before releasing The Lonesome Crowded West. They re-released the LP in 2014 along with 1996 debut studio album This Is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About. In addition to their ‘90s classics, Modest Mouse is well-known for 2004 platinum Good News For People Who Love Bad News and 2007 chart topper We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank.
