Texas-based indie pop band Khruangbin enjoys significant popularity in Turkey, thanks in part to the exotic influences easily detectable in their sound. Drawing inspiration from instrumental surf-rock legends The Shadows, the band blends elements of psychedelia and dream-pop to craft a unique sonic identity, offering some of the most acclaimed examples of modern psychedelic music. Khruangbin has consistently drawn large crowds at every concert they’ve played in Istanbul. Most recently, in April 2024, they released a new album titled ‘A La Sala’. If you haven’t had the chance to experience them live yet, don’t miss it.

Pioneers of Scotland’s post-rock scene, Mogwai are once again inviting Istanbul audiences to a singular musical ceremony. Formed in Glasgow in 1995, the band has become one of the genre’s most powerful and influential voices through a string of critically acclaimed albums. Their latest release, The Bad Fire (2025), unveils yet another rich sonic world. On stage, Mogwai push the boundaries of both serenity and noise, promising a live experience that’s as hypnotic as it is unforgettable.
