Almost three decades after blurring the line between cartoon lore and Britpop\u2019s effortless cool, Gorillaz<\/a> are heading back to Miami. Damon Albarn\u2019s animated superband will bring \u201cThe Mountain Tour\u201d to the Kaseya Center<\/a> on Friday, September 18, marking their first extensive North American run since 2022.<\/p>\n Long gone are the days when fans debated who lurked behind the tattooed, sketchbook silhouettes of 2-D, Murdoc, Noodle, and Russel. Albarn and co-creator Jamie Hewlett\u2019s virtual universe has become a global institution.<\/p>\n Many will remember the band\u2019s last Magic City stop on October 23, 2022<\/a>, when they closed out their world tour at the then-FTX Arena. Over two hours and a few dozen songs, Gorillaz stitched together hip-hop, world-music rhythms, piano ballads, and surprise guests into a euphoric spectacle that felt tailor-made for a city that thrives on genre collisions. Before that, they performed at Mana Wynwood during the III Points Festival in 2017 \u2014 a fitting stage for a project built on cross-cultural, art and tech experimentation.<\/p>\n Collaboration remains central to the Gorillaz ethos. In 2023, they teamed with the one and only Bad Bunny<\/a> for \u201cTormenta,\u201d a reggaeton-leaning standout from Cracker Island that combined Latin rhythms with psychedelic pop. They have also co-created with Elton John, De La Soul, Snoop Dogg, Robert Smith, and, for this new record, The Mountain; they rallied Johnny Marr, Anoushka Shankar, and others.<\/p>\n The album, shaped by the loss of their fathers experienced by Albarn and Hewlett, explores themes of grief and the afterlife. Recorded across India, London, and beyond, the Mountain material draws on Indian classical instrumentation alongside the band\u2019s electronic backbone, weaving multiple languages, including English, Arabic, Hindi, Spanish, and Yoruba, into its lyrics.<\/p>\n Expect the live show \u2014 hailed by Rolling Stone as an \u201coverwhelming pop spectacle\u201d \u2014 to tap into the full catalog, from \u201cClint Eastwood\u201d to \u201cFeel Good Inc.\u201d and beyond.<\/p>\n Tickets for Gorillaz at Kaseya Center go on sale Monday, March 9, at 10 a.m., with a presale running March 6 through March 8.
