Comprised of Ryan Guldemond (vocals, guitar), Molly Guldemond (vocals, keys), Jasmin Parkin (vocals, keys), Ali Siadat (drums) and Mike Young (bass), Mother Mother are best known for their deep connection with their fans, and for bringing stadium-sized energy to their live show, no matter the stage. Singing about themes of alienation and enormous longing for self and societal acceptance, the band's mission is to be a home for souls that feel they don't fit in anywhere else.
Mother Mother were recently catapulted into a new stratosphere of universal success following the release of their critically acclaimed studio album INSIDE. Their explosive follow-up to "Hayloft," "Hayloft II" connected with fans around the world and is now certified Gold in the US and approaching Platinum in their home country of Canada. A string of #1 radio hits in Canada, 6 billion global streams, and multiple Billboard chart appearances cement their newfound global success.
The quintet spent most of the last year touring the world playing to sold-out audiences in theaters to stadiums, with multiple sold-out headline tours in Europe, UK, Canada, Australia and the U.S. as well as past and upcoming festival plays at Reading + Leeds, Lollapalooza in Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Berlin, Corona Capital in Mexico, Pukkelpop Belgium, Frequency Festival in Austria, Lowlands in The Netherlands and more.
Once again mother mother put on a GREAT show! Listening to them as well as watching them is pure bliss, not to mention when Ryan speaks to the crowd between songs his choice of words is so overwhelmingly delicious that it's impossible to get enough. Hannah Georgas was also amazing!
I've seen MotherMother numerous times, and this was one of the best ever!! The new CD, the Sticks, live is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. My friend and I were front row center, and as always, I am amazed by what a guitar aficionado Ryan is. Ali's drum skills really shine with the new CD - noticeable how precisely perfectly the percussion complements the music. The set list blew me away - thanks for playing Verbatim guys! But more importantly, I really noticed the transitions between songs - they were just so orchestrated to flow together. Ryan, Molly, Jasmin, Ali, Jeremy - thank you for what you do and a great nite out !! thanks for the wave Jasmin - that meant a lot ... til we meet again
It's almost relieving to remind myself that Mother Mother has only been around for 5 years or so, because they are the most underrated band I can think of. This is with respect to both live performance and songwriting (melody, harmonies, orchestration, lyricism....the whole shabang). Singer Ryan Guldemond is a true front man - he gave it 100% for 100% of show. And the same is also true for the rest of the band. Every song is memorable, and never monotonous. I only recently discovered Mother Mother, and never before have I become so familiar with a band/artist's repertoire in such a short period of time. These guys are absolute musical geniuses. I'm looking forward to going to every Mother Mother show I can in the future. Hannah Georgas, although a clearly talented songwriter, was a bit disappointing. For me this was because she does not possess the vocal 'punch' required to stand out over the deep electronic grooves. On the flip side, I imagine she would be incredible in a softer acoustic atmosphere....but that does not seem to be the realm where she wants her music to reside.
The opening act was bland and uninspiring, and I just sat there wondering what they hell I had come there for, and then Mother Mother takes the stage and Ottawa is given a lesson on what rock n roll is all about. Everything was superb, the lights, the musicianship, the intensity, the energy. I have never seen an entire crowd get to its feet and then STAY THERE for the entire show. One big party hole blasted in the mind-space. With the two girls on each side it was like some futuristic mutation of the B-52s, and Ryan's like one incredibly hopped-up version of Fred Schneider... The whole show was great, and highly recommended.
Always a pleasure to see Ryan Guildemond and the band perform, with all the enthusiasm and energy they bring to every show. Lighting was superb and sound was pretty spot on, considering how rustic the venue was.. Second time seeing them there, still a great time! Thanks!
An incredible performance by both bands. A great night of music.
This was the first time I have seen Mother Mother perform live and it was a great, entertaining show as usual. The crowd got quite rowdy but what's a concert without some pushing and shoving? It was interesting to see the band perform in a smaller venue from the previous two concerts they have performed in my city. It felt like a more personal show, however, the tickets did sell out faster than I think people expected and I know a few people who missed out on getting tickets.The show started late and there was a long intermission between the opener band and Mother Mother, pushing the show into the late night. Overall though it was a great show, I wish they had played a few more songs from their newest album, but hey I don't get to pick the set list.
Maurice were a little low key as openers. They were good, but not really what I was expecting as an opener for this band. Mother Mother were amazing however. I will definitely be going to see them again next time they are in town.
I saw Mother Mother at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver, 12/29/2011. Fantastic venue, great energy and an outstanding performance by an extremely talented group of musicians. Mother Mother's unique sound, interesting lyrics and overall chemistry made for an unforgettable experience. Go see them and just try to keep from dancing.
Great venue- great songs- great energy- great music! Fantastic show
One of the greatest concerts I've ever been to. Not only do they know how to put on a show, but I had such a blast dancing and jumping to all the songs! Very talented group of mucisians. I was disappointed, however that I didn't get to meet the band after :( I've heard such nice things about them off stage! I honestly wish them all the best and great success!
Great show! The band are great entertainers and I liked every single song they played. Love their lyrics and the music!! Hope they hit the stratosphere, they are so unique and good with great stage presence! My daughter and her friend knew the lyrics to every single song and bounced all night long. Hope to see them again in Toronto!
Saw Mother Mother on April 6th, 2011 in Winnipeg - it was the night of my life! They played a good mix of songs off of all three albums and it sounded just as good live as on the albums, if not better!!! Also was impressed to see that they played three encore songs and came out into the lobby afterwards for signing. Amazing band! Also had Whale Tooth for Toronto as an opener - great choice! Really set the mood for MM. Can't wait till the next time they come!!!
Great music by Mother Mother and opening band Whale Tooth. Very upbeat music and performances and band was very personable.
I didn't realize it, but they have more bad songs than good.
They are a great band and are even better live, this is the best concert I have ever been to.
