About BeMUSEd

BeMUSEd has been playing for over a decade. Learning the songs was the easy part. Most of our time since has gone into making the show sound and look as close to MUSE as we can get it.

In practice that means dialling in the tones, synth patches and vocal effects to match the records. Lighting and laser cues are programmed to every track and run from the stage on our own rig. The setlist covers the classic era, with deep cuts alongside the big singles.

  • Dead Star (deep cut)
  • Citizen Erased (deep cut)
  • Plug in Baby
  • Starlight
  • Psycho

Deep cuts long-time fans ask for

What we're known for

Classic era, start to finish

Every song comes from Showbiz to Drones. You get the big singles and the album tracks long-time fans ask for.

Studio-accurate tone

Pedals, synth patches and vocal effects are set song by song, so Knights of Cydonia and Time Is Running Out sound as different live as they do on the records.

Full production, synchronised

Lighting and laser cues are programmed to every track. We bring the rig and run it from the stage.

A decade on the UK circuit

Venues, festivals and private events around the country, with plenty of repeat bookings.
