Bristol rockers, Mother Vulture, have today unleashed their brand new single ‘The Wave’ via Lockdown Rekords.
“Mother Vultureare back in business and ready to once again tear your eardrums apart with our new single, The Wave.” the band elaborate, “A year of pent up rage has built within the MV camp, and we’re now bursting at the seams and ready to get out and unleash hell upon unsuspecting audiences.”
Before March 2020, Mother Vulture were well on the path to building a solid fan base, after supporting both Bokassa & Michael Monroe. The band had also just played their second London show to rapturous reviews. They were even picked up a booking agent and secured slots on a bunch of Summer festivals, including a spot headlining the Rising Stage at Ramblin’ Man Fair. However all their plans came tumbling down – like everyone else’s – due to covid. Ferocious live shows is where Mother Vulture built their reputation, but with no clue to as to when they’d be able to play more shows, the band knuckled down, busied themselves online and kept moving.
A live album, ‘Doing It Live’ was pieced together and self-released last July. Hardcore fans snuffled it up and it sold out within the week. Then the lovely people at Fender/Gretsch spotted guitarist Brodie flinging a Gretsch around the stage and sent over a beautiful Brian Setzer Signature model. And in August, the band’s unhinged single, ‘Tell Me’ was licensed direct from the band for a new video game called Rhythmatic.
And so with a light now on the horizon, Mother Vulture are once again coiling up to attack 2021. With ‘The Wave’ the latest fruit from their sessions at the world renowned Rockfield Studios, the band have a handful of festival appearances lined up as follows, with more live dates set for later this year.
Sat 31st July – The Yard Live, Truro (with Orange Goblin)
Thu 12th Aug – Bloodstock Festival, Derbyshire (Sophie Lancaster Stage)
Sat 11th Sept – Burn It Down Festival, Torquay
