Currently finishing work on their sophomore album with Grammy-nominated producer Joshua Valleau (Kanye West, John Legend, Snoop Dogg, Common, Imani Coppola, Alice Smith), Mother Feather has launched a new lyric video for the track « Trampoline« , which can be viewed at
The lyric video was created by King Z (Dylan Bowman), a young artist AMother Feather’s Ann Courtney met fortuitously at one of the band’s live shows in Brooklyn a couple years ago. « He made quite a first impression on me, » says Courtney. « It was his first NYC rock show ever and he was totally wild-eyed afterwards, a fireball of pure enthusiasm. I liked him right away. Dylan made the move to Brooklyn to attend art school at Pratt shortly thereafter and I’ve become a big fan of spectacularly psychedelic style, which is on full display in his webseries, ‘King Z.’ I was thrilled when he agreed to collaborate and lend his style to a lyric video for ‘Trampoline.' »
« Trampoline » will also be aired during the season premiere of Showtime’s Shameless, on November 5th at 9PM ET/PT. For more information about Shameless, please visit: http://www.sho.com/shameless
Mother Feather will release their upcoming album in 2018 via Metal Blade Records. « The newest songs for the album were written last fall and winter in the midst and aftermath of the US presidential election, » Courtney comments. « The political climate and outcome were personally devastating, but it also re-ignited my sense of purpose. I locked myself away to write, face my depression, and stare down some uncomfortable feelings. Truthfully, I went to some very dark and lonely places. So there’s a lot of fever – and intimacy – in the new music. When I emerged from my self-exile, I discovered my band waiting for me on the other side, so there’s exuberance and catharsis there too. It’s good to have friends, ya know?! Together, we worked to develop the songs and shape them into some of Mother Feather’s best, most eclectic work yet. We couldn’t be more excited for this opportunity to continue our work with Metal Blade. »
