Hailing from the Classic City (Athens, GA.), Mama's Love is a five-piece rock band that's as youthful and energetic as the town where it resides. Drawing on classic rock influences, the band combines creative arrangements with soulful riffs to produce music that is pure rock 'n roll. Since the bands reformation in the Summer of 2009 the musical chemistry has progressed to new levels.
Mama's Love has built a substantial body of original work in just three years, attracting fans from many age groups to its polished live performances. The band's commitment to song-writing shows in its first full-length album, Willow Street Sessions. Recorded at Starratt Studios during May 2007, Willow Street's 12 original tunes reveal the musical creativity of the band and its' song writing capabilities. The more mature second generation of Mama's Love songs, showcased now on tour, delve deeper in musical complexity and lyrical composition. Six of these songs are featured on an EP that was recorded in early December with Tom Tapley at Southern Tracks Studio in Atlanta, GA.
The band has played at such festivals as: The Echo Project (Atlanta, Oct. '07), Trinumeral Festival (NC, August '08), Hemlock Festival, Buffalo Creek Festival (Virginia, May '09) and Hoopee Jam (May '09) to name a few, and has been featured at some of the Southeast's best clubs (Smith's Olde Bar, Georgia Theatre, The Double Door Inn, The Pour House – Charleston, The Pour House Music Hall – Raleigh, Zydeco, Elbow Room). Close proximity to venues and fellow musicians, as well as classes in the University of Georgia's Music Business Program have fostered an environment for the band to grow its ability, as well as fan base.
The Love has been spreading all over the greater Southeast. This fall the band has played in cities from Dallas, TX and New Orleans, LA to Lexington, VA. Mama's Love plans on touring the region and building on the momentum that they are gaining, to step up to the next level and become a nationally touring act.
