Pixies, Modest Mouse take over Waukee for one night. Here's how to get tickets.
Alt-rockers the Pixies are about to bring “Where Is My Mind?” to Waukee when they, Modest Mouse and Cat Power take over Vibrant Music Hall this summer.
All three powerhouse performers will take the stage on June 23 as the Live Nation-owned venue works its way toward its first anniversary.
The tour comes after a "highly successful sold-out run" in 2023 with all three performers, Live Nation announced Monday.
The Pixies, formed in Massachusetts in the 1980s, are responsible for songs “Monkey Gone to Heaven,” “Gigantic” and “Heaven,” notably influencing Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain and others — so much so that American Songwriter said Pixies is as "influential as The Beatles" earlier in January.
Joining the Pixies is Modest Mouse, the alt-rock act that formed several years after the Pixies in Washington. The band is known for hits including “Float On” and “Dashboard.”
In December 2022, Modest Mouse drummer Jeremiah Green died after a stage 4 cancer diagnosis, USA TODAY reported. He was 45.
Special guest Cat Power, who performed on day one of Iowa City’s annual Mission Creek Festival in 2023, joins with her husky voice and beloved covers.
