Mogwai To Score Forthcoming Film

Mogwai are set to score a forthcoming film.

According to the official website, the film entitled ‘Hudson River Project’ is described as ‘The film follows a man as he makes a boat from New York City’s waste, the detritus of a modern megalopolis, and takes it to the source of the Hudson River high in the Adirondack Mountains, at Lake Tear of the Clouds.

‘He rows the boat back to NYC, through wilderness, countryside, farms, towns and industry, all of which rely on the mighty river that flows past, all of which are threads of the river’s story.’

After already being booked for a headline slot at the Saturday 26th May leg of the ATP: I’ll Be Your Mirror weekender, Mogwai have also decided to make a tour of it - adding a flurry of European and North American dates to the stint.

The group’s last album ‘Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will’ came out back in February 2011, with their ‘Earth Division’ EP following it in September.
