Gorillaz brought The Mountain Tour to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for one night, with Sparks supporting and a long line of guests on stage.
Gorillaz, the virtual band Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett created in 1998, played Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday 20 June 2026 on The Mountain Tour. Sparks supported.
Albarn, then the singer of Blur, and the artist Hewlett began the project while sharing a flat on Westbourne Grove in London. The four band members are fictional, and Albarn is its only permanent musician.
The 2001 debut, led by “Clint Eastwood”, went triple platinum in Britain. Demon Days followed in 2005 with “Feel Good Inc.” and went six times platinum.
The tour promoted The Mountain, a ninth album that draws on the music of India, and Indian musicians including Anoushka Shankar played on the night. Guests included Little Simz, Johnny Marr and Paul Simonon.
Shaun Ryder came on in the encore to sing “Dare”. The evening ran for about two and a half hours.
Sparks, the Los Angeles duo of the brothers Ron and Russell Mael, formed in 1968 and opened the night.
