Mother Mother is a five-piece band from Vancouver, Canada signed to Last Gang Records (The New Pornographers, Metric, DFA 1979). In 2007, they released their debut album Touch Up, a very creative and diverse expression of modern pop music that led to much critical acclaim and extensive touring in North America. Their unique sound and highly regarded live show has seen them perform in many different settings, from The Montreal International Jazz Festival, to SXSW, to The Virgin Music Festival. The Globe and Mail gave their debut album 4 stars, and Perez Hilton noted Mother Mother to be “the most exciting band coming out of Canada” – this review in particular offered great exposure, and saw their myspace hits increase by 30,000 in one day. Not only do world newspapers and celebrity bloggers want to talk about Mother Mother, but also alternative and indie rock outlets, including Pitchfork Media, who remarked Touch Up to be “an album isolated from a lot of today's worn-out trends and aesthetic mimicry." Chart Attack remarked that "listening to Mother Mother is like reading Hunter S. Thompson – you end up in a place where reality has been delightfully skewed,” an apt comparison, given the band’s quirky style and thematic eccentricities. Currently, Mother Mother is recording their second album, set to be released in the summer of 2008.
