Mohawk first opened its doors in 2006 and has since become a beloved venue and bar in the heart of downtown Austin. The venue is missioned with hosting audiences, musicians, and staff that represent all music tastes and all backgrounds, stressing that all are welcome at the Mohawk.

Mascis, Tenacious D, Big Boi, Ice Cube, Public Enemy, Sleep, Bon Iver, The Decemberists, TV on the Radio, Moby, Murder City Devils, Common, Godspeed, MSTRKRFT, Kool Keith, Dan Deacon, Monotonix, The Whigs, The Dead Milkmen, The Black Angels, Peter Buck, Big Freedia, Vampire Weekend, Green Day, King Kahn, White Denim, Fleet Foxes, Yelle, Bill Callahan, Destroyer, Cut Copy, Deerhoof, Shearwater, Okkervil River, Tokyo Police Club, Islands, Torche, Boris, Ghostland Observatory, The Long Winters, Helio Sequence, No Age, Black Mountain, High on Fire, and countless more.
