Mama Ain't Dead / John Fatum
Mama Aint Dead was born out of a love for fiddle tunes, old time music, bluegrass, and some friends deciding to start a band together. Made up of members from established New England Folk/Americana/Bluegrass bands Town Meeting, Green Heron and The Green Sisters this collective is ready to show you something new that still feels nostalgic. Their live set will feature an eclectic mix of original songs, covers, old standards and fiddle tunes. If youre going to a show be sure to bringing your dancing shoes... or boots... slippers... or just go bare foot- they wont mind.
John Fatum represents a new type of songwriter, blending folk, country, blues, and rock elements into his recordings. His debut solo LP, Locked Up In My Mind, was a journey into to the young mind of the 25 year-old percussionist and singer-songwriter. His sophomore effort, John Fatum S/T, weaves a story of legacy of story and sound and shows John taking on the characters and mythology of those who came before him. Supported by friends and New York folk scene veterans like Prairie Home Companions Sarah Jarosz and Scottish musician Hannah Read, Fatums release takes on a haunting and cinematic tone on tracks like Ride On Nebraska. Together the crew creates the kind of magic that can only occur between talented, tight-knit friends reaching epic back porch jam proportions. John sums up this feeling by explaining theres a nebulous aspect to rhythm that you cant write or put down. Its not definable. You couldnt create unless a human was playing it, says Fatum.I really believe that life is a rhythm, that were all on some trajectory through time. Music provides us that pulse that tracks us through life. And its a steadying thing, instead of free fall.
