MGMT
Formed in 2002 by singers and multi-instrumentalists Andrew VanWyngarden and Ben Goldwasser, MGMT released their era-defining debut album Oracular Spectacular in 2007. One of the most influential albums of the 00’s – it went on to sell over 2 million copies worldwide and was certified Gold or Platinum in over 10 major territories, including double platinum in UK, Platinum in Australia, Gold in France and Gold in the USA. Oracular Spectacular gave the world evergreen hits such as ‘Kids’, ‘Electric Feeland’ and ‘Time to Pretend’ which continue to inspire new generations of artists and music fans alike to this day. Always taking an unexpected creative turn at every new record, but always maintaining their cultural and commercial relevance through the following 15 years, MGMT went on to release three further studio albums: Congratulations (2010), MGMT (2013) and Little Dark Age (2018), of which the viral title track brought the duo a second wind of success in their two-decade long career.
