The Hot Mamas
We kick off the year with The Hot Mamas – an all-female collective (coagulation?) full of depth and loaded with surprising instruments.
In This Episode
One member describes them as … if you went to a junkyard and you had a bathtub and you filled the bathtub with everything you could find in the junkyard and then you put it on some skateboards and rolled it down the street, and then the bathtub tipped over and a bunch of hot girls in Scarves and bolas galore on roller skates roll up and they pick up the trash … I mean instruments and they just start playing … very professionally.
With instrumentation ranging from toy piano, clarinet, banjo, accordion, ukulele, washboard, dueling kazoos to amazing harmonies, The Hot Mamas not only entertain and know how to have a good time but they also captivate audiences with their depth. Their writing styles range from jazzy to pop, from sea chanteys to murder ballads, soulful blues to drinkin’-when-you’re-sad country tunes. The Hot Mamas are quirky, fun, profound and sincere and not to be missed!
Joining us are Mallory McKendry, Jess Young, Maria Leckey and Jen Kidd and they’ll share their personal journey’s finding music and how the came together to form the super group. We’ll share their brand new single “Ford Escort”, some other tunes from their catalog, a surprisingly awesome cover from their Musikfest set – and they’ll perform live!
Be sure to give them a like and subscribe, and catch a live show when they perform near you – they are incredible!
