A surprise for those living in Copenhagen, and also for those foreigners who are already planning to visit this Summer’s Roskilde Festival. Mew are playing a special solo show at the Bremen Teater in Copenhagen on Wednesday, July 4th. For many of us, this means that we will have to leave the festival grounds for…

The winners will be selected soon after the deadline which will be at noon (12:00 CET) on Friday, May 25th, 2012. Should…

We have chosen the winner for You Drew Me(wx) Cartoons -contest. Only about twenty entries were sent, but it was still a tough choice. We awarded Kevin Exley (from UK) a prize this time, and you can see his artwork below. As an idea, Kevin’s drawing was so out there, still being Mew related. We…
