Mika

On 29 July 2026, Mika lands at Kelvingrove Bandstand in Glasgow with the pop craft that made his name. Lebanese-born and London-raised, he built his sound on a nimble falsetto, piano riffs and melodies that stick. Breakthrough single Grace Kelly opened the door to his first album, Life in a Cartoon Motion, followed by The Boy Who Knew Too Much and The Origin of Love, records shaped by sharp hooks and clear, singable choruses.

On stage, he shifts between high-energy pop and quieter moments at the piano, playing with dynamics and leaving space for that elastic voice. The set draws on early hits like Relax, Take It Easy and Love Today, while opening windows to later chapters. Influences from Queen and Prince surface in the stacked harmonies, theatrical phrasing and a taste for bold chord changes, but the tone stays light and direct.

This Glasgow date is a chance to catch Mika’s songwriting up close: character-led stories, bright refrains and rhythms that keep the crowd moving, all in an outdoor setting that suits his open, melodic style.
