Biography

Modest Mouse is an American indie rock band formed in 1993 in Issaquah, Washington, and currently based in Portland, Oregon. The founding members were lead singer/guitarist Isaac Brock, drummer Jeremiah Green and bassist Eric Judy. They achieved critical acclaim for their albums The Lonesome Crowded West (1997) and The Moon & Antarctica (2000) and found mainstream success with the release of Good News for People Who Love Bad News (2004) and its singles "Float On" and "Ocean Breathes Salty". The following album We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank (2007) brought additional successes with the single "Dashboard". The group has seen many line up changes with Brock remaining the sole consistent member following Judy's departure in 2012 and Green's death in 2022. Notable former members include guitarist and multi-instrumentalist Dann Gallucci, guitarist Johnny Marr (of the Smiths fame), drummer and multi-instrumentalist Joe Plummer, multi-instrumentalist Tom Peloso and guitarist Jim Fairchild. The band's sixth album, Strangers to Ourselves, was released in 2015 and their seventh, The Golden Casket, in 2021. Their eighth and latest album, An Eraser and a Maze, was released in June 2026.
