Momus

Momus, the enigmatic alias of Scottish musician and writer Nick Currie, is a provocateur who blends baroque pop, shibuya-kei, and art pop into a sonic tapestry as rich and layered as his erudite lyrics. Born in 1960, Momus has been crafting his unique brand of music since 1981, drawing inspiration from his extensive knowledge and esoteric influences. Named after the Greek god of mockery, Momus' music is as much a feast for the mind as it is for the ears, often laced with wit, satire, and a touch of the absurd. His work is a testament to his intellectual curiosity and unyielding creativity, making every release an event not to be missed.
