Tickets to see the Grammy‑winning Indie Rock Group go on sale Friday, February 20th
UNCASVILLE, CT (February 18, 2026) –Mohegan Sun Arena is excited to announce that Wet Leg, the globally acclaimed Indie Rock group from the Isle of Wight, will take the stage on Sunday, June 14th, 2026 at 7:00pm.
Tickets go on sale Friday, February 20th, 2026, via Ticketmaster, and will be available at the Mohegan Sun Box Office beginning Saturday, February 21st.
Formed by longtime friends Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers, Wet Leg became one of the most electrifying breakout acts in modern music, evolving into a taut, caustic, high‑energy live band supported by Ellis Durand (bass), Henry Holmes (drums), and Joshua Mobaraki (guitar, synth). Their rise has been meteoric, earning #1 chart placements, three GRAMMY Awards, two BRIT Awards, and over half a billion streams worldwide.
The group recently announced their eagerly anticipated second album, moisturizer, arriving July 11th on Domino. The album’s lead single, “catch these fists,” showcases their signature dance‑punk dynamism—basslines ricocheting through heavy synths, precision percussion, and Teasdale’s razor‑sharp deadpan delivery. The accompanying video, shot on the Isle of Wight and co‑directed by the band, nods to classic and contemporary cult cinema, maintaining Wet Leg’s unmistakably off‑kilter visual identity.
Written during an immersive stint in the remote seaside town of Southwold in Norfolk, moisturizer is a fully collaborative effort from all five members—bolder, stranger, raunchier, and bursting with exuberance. While the album pulls inspiration from chaotic encounters and blistering live energy, it is also filled with love songs in all forms: obsessive, blissed out, stressed, mysterious, and deeply alive. Its artwork, featuring Chambers and Teasdale in surreal, claw‑bearing, high‑glam horror style, reflects the album’s fearless personality and newfound sense of creative ownership.
Wet Leg continues to expand their universe with a clear, self‑directed vision, one that prioritizes fun, intensity, and authenticity both onstage and in the studio. Their performances remain some of the most anticipated in contemporary music, delivering a sound and presence that is as witty as it is sonically explosive.

Iconic ’90s Hitmakers Bring a Powerhouse Triple‑Bill to Mohegan Sun Arena on Friday, July 31, 2026
UNCASVILLE, CT (January 20, 2026) – Multi-platinum Rock legends Blues Traveler and Gin Blossoms have joined forces yet again for an electrifying co-headlining summer tour. The bands behind signature hits like “Run-Around” and “Hey Jealousy” have announced a 35-date run that includes a special performance at Mohegan Sun Arena on Friday, July 31st for a 6:00pm show.
Tickets go on sale on Friday, January 23rd via Ticketmaster and at the Mohegan Sun Box Office starting Saturday, January 24th.
Blues Traveler — who last year celebrated 30 years since the single release of their GRAMMY® Award-winning breakthrough hit “Run-Around,” a milestone highlighted in aRolling Stone interview with frontman John Popper — will join Gin Blossoms, whose quadruple-platinum album New Miserable Experience helped define ‘90s alternative radio, for this highly-anticipated run. In addition, returning from last year’s lineup, the tour features legendary Alternative Rock band Spin Doctors, commemorating this year the 35th anniversary of their multi-platinum debut Pocket Full of Kryptonite, home to the chart-topping, GRAMMY®-nominated hit “Two Princes.”
For Blues Traveler, the run is a celebration of long-standing friendships forged on the road. “It’s rare when a package feels so much like home that it carries a spirit which becomes tangible to an audience,” frontman John Popper reflects. “That was the case — by all accounts — regarding our summer tour last year with Spin Doctors and Gin Blossoms. We grew up with Spin Doctors as pups in the same litter… ours is a shared origin story. But working with Gin Blossoms was a first. Their music was everywhere when we were coming up, and yet only last summer did we have the opportunity to learn how fun it is playing with them — and to discover how much energy our three bands put out in combination. So we’ve decided to take this show everywhere we missed last year. We’re excited to bring it to you.”
That enthusiasm carries over from last summer’s shows. Guitarist Chan Kinchla adds, “Back by popular demand! We had such a blast last summer with Gin Blossoms and Spin Doctors and all of you beautiful people that we decided to bring the tour to the half of the country we missed. Can’t wait for another amazing summer!”
Members of Gin Blossoms echo the sentiment, highlighting both nostalgia and momentum. “Same tour 2 summers in a row,” says vocalist Robin Wilson. “I’ve never even heard of this happening before. It is a testament to the strength of the lineup. We’re all friends, we’re going to sell a lot of tickets, and it will be a blast.” Guitarist Jesse Valenzuela puts it simply: “Let’s do it again, part deux! Another summer of great music with our brothers in Blues Traveler and Spin Doctors.” Guitarist Scott Johnson adds,“Blues Traveler and Spin Doctors is the best package we have ever been a part of, something for everyone!”
For Spin Doctors, the decision to return for a second consecutive summer speaks for itself. “As far as I know, it’s pretty unprecedented for the same tour to go out two summers in a row,” says frontman Chris Barron. “I’m glad it’s happening because it’s nice to know that while we were having a ball, the audiences were as well. For sure it’s gonna be the ticket of the summer.” Drummer Aaron Comess hints at what fans can expect: “We had so much fun last summer on this tour we’re doing it again. Get ready for lots more collaborations, hit songs, and killer jams.”
ABOUT BLUES TRAVELERS
Nearly four decades ago, the four original members of Blues Traveler — John Popper, Chandler Kinchla, Brendan Hill, and the late Bobby Sheehan — gathered in their drummer’s parents’ basement in Princeton, NJ, to jam. From these high school sessions emerged a band that would go on to release a total of 14 studio albums, four of which have gone gold, three platinum, and one six-times platinum, selling more than 10 million combined units worldwide.
Over an illustrious career, Blues Traveler has played more than 2,000 live shows in front of over 30 million people and, with “Run-Around,” achieved the longest-charting radio single in Billboard history — earning the band a GRAMMY® for “Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals”. In 2021, Blues Traveler released the GRAMMY®-nominated Traveler’s Blues (Round Hill Records), a collection of reimagined and recharged classics from the American Blues songbook and the group’s first official Blues album. The second release in this series, 2023’s Traveler’s Soul, takes a similar approach, consisting of cover songs from a specific genre — this time classic R&B and Soul.
ABOUT GIN BLOSSOMS
Formed in Tempe, Arizona in 1987, Gin Blossoms helped shape early ’90s Alternative radio with their quadruple‑platinum breakthrough New Miserable Experience, powered by the gold‑certified hit “Hey Jealousy” and fan favorites like “Allison Road” and “Until I Fall Away.” Their hometown honored the band in 2022 with the dedication of “Allison Road Avenue,” celebrating the album’s legacy. They followed with the platinum Congratulations I’m Sorry, featuring the Top 10 hit “Follow You Down” and GRAMMY®‑nominated “As Long as It Matters.”
Still anchored by Robin Wilson, Jesse Valenzuela, Bill Leen, and Scotty Johnson, the band continues to tour extensively and evolve their signature Power‑Pop sound. Their latest album, Mixed Reality, delivers 15 new tracks that reaffirm their timeless songwriting. Inducted into the Arizona Music & Entertainment Hall of Fame in 2017, Gin Blossoms remain a staple on the road, sharing stages with major Rock acts and reuniting with Blues Traveler for another high‑energy summer tour.
Best known for their multi-platinum album Pocket Full of Kryptonite — celebrating its 35th anniversary — which sold 10 million copies worldwide and featured hits like the GRAMMY®-nominated “Two Princes” and “Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong,” Spin Doctors are a defining band of the ’90s Alternative Rock scene. With their infectious hooks, bluesy grooves, and high-energy live shows, the band continues to captivate audiences worldwide. Composed of Chris Barron (vocals), Eric Schenkman (guitar), Jack Daley (bass), and Aaron Comess (drums), Spin Doctors remain a force in Rock music, blending Funk, Blues, and Pop into their unmistakable sound.
Their latest album, Face Full of Cake (via Capitol Records), marks their first release in 12 years, showcasing the band in revitalized form with warm Funk, abundant hooks, and the easygoing energy longtime fans expect. Featuring new bassist Jack Daley, the record reflects the creativity, humor, and collaborative spirit that have defined the band’s enduring career. With a blockbuster summer tour on the horizon, Spin Doctors continue to prove that, despite decades of experience, they are just getting started.
