Mopes

Cornish lo-fi rockers Mopes cropped up amongst Falmouth’s thriving DIY scene in 2019, and have since made the move to South London. Fuzzy, cavernously reverberant, and endearingly homespun, the band at once dabble in the whip-tight tempos and aggression of hardcore punk and spaced-out, folksy balladry, with dynamic and melodic sensibilities suggesting a love for classic and contemporary Americana

On the 21st of February we were lucky enough to have them as the main support at The George Tavern. It was clear they knew what they were doing, taking the stage and thus transforming from polite and quiet characters into emotive performers riding the fine line between chaos and control. It was clear everyone was hooked, impressed by the tightness of the band. Each song was very dynamic, guiding us through different emotions all whilst making us move our feet and nod our heads in approval. A brilliant show! 

We were pleased to have caught Mopes at the beginning of their London journey, be sure to check them out and catch them at a show soon…!
