Details

Resound Presents brings indie visionary Rostam to Mohawk on June 26, 2026, for a night of dreamy, adventurous pop under the Austin sky.

Known for his groundbreaking work with Vampire Weekend and his lush solo albums, Rostam blends baroque pop, electronic textures, and global influences into songs that feel both intimate and cinematic. This tour highlights material from his 2026 album American Stories, along with favorites from earlier releases and his many collaborations.

Doors open at 7:00 pm, with the show kicking off at 8:00 pm, giving you time to settle in, grab a drink, and claim your spot before the music washes over the outdoor stage.

  • Who’s playing: Rostam, the Grammy-winning producer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist behind some of the most beloved indie tracks of the last decade.
  • What to expect: Rich arrangements, layered harmonies, and live reinterpretations of studio-perfect songs, all boosted by Mohawk’s famously high-energy crowd.
  • Tour vibes: Part of Rostam’s 2026 American Stories Tour, showcasing new songs that weave together personal memories, nostalgic Americana, and subtle electronic grooves.
  • All ages welcome: This show is open to all ages, making it a great pick for fans discovering Rostam for the first time as well as longtime listeners.

Mohawk’s outdoor stage turns this concert into a full experience rather than just a show. Expect the lights of downtown as a backdrop, the hum of the crowd, and a sound system that brings out every detail—from delicate strings and piano flourishes to deep, pulsing bass.

  • Hear reimagined live versions of songs Rostam’s produced for other artists, woven alongside his solo catalog.
  • Soak in new tracks from American Stories, with lyrics that feel like little movies, set to shimmering synths and unexpected chord changes.
  • Enjoy the natural flow of a setlist that can shift from hushed, heart-on-sleeve ballads to danceable, beat-driven anthems.

Whether you know him as the sonic architect behind early Vampire Weekend, from his solo work like “Bike Dream,” or from his collaborations across the indie world, seeing Rostam live puts the focus on his musicianship and inventive arrangements.

If you’re into imaginative production, thoughtful songwriting, and an atmosphere that feels equal parts artful and celebratory, this is a must-catch night at Mohawk. Grab your ticket, bring your friends, and get ready to spend an evening wrapped up in Rostam’s uniquely colorful soundscapes.
