Mama Kin Spender prepare for the release of the brand new EP ‘Are You Listening?’ which is out on April 9th, 2020.
‘Are You Listening?’ manifests in vibrant detail the 20-year connection between acclaimed Australian musicians Mama Kin and Tommy Spender. An artistic conduit born through chance, Mama Kin Spender lock in on both a musical and a spiritual level. It’s this compelling bond and the creative sparks generated that have marked them as favourites for an ever-growing league of music fans.
With the nation’s airwaves resonating over the past months to the keen pop hooks of the E.P’s first single ‘What’s Wrong With Me?’ and then again to the compelling stomp of its follow up ‘Eye of The Storm’, this passionate release still has more gems to deliver. The four part audio drama exploring the concept of listening both to others and yourself, “Are You Listening?” wets a high water mark on the already royal tide generated by this inspired pairing.
Today the duo free the third single from the collection entitled ‘The Road.’ a dirt track lament shared by “a couple of broken and rejected strangers.”
As Mama Kin explains, “The Road is about those times when someone brings you their broken bits and you sit in the discomfort of their discomfort with them for a moment. Sharing their load, not challenging it by asking them to defend or validate what is real for them.”
With Tommy Spender’s plaintive call and Mama Kin’s tender response, ‘The Road’ features washes of the swelling choir sound that the pair have made a trademark. The song writing sympatico that is evidenced here illuminates the rarefied creative ground these two artists inhabit.
Mama Kin adds, “This song is about what it is to really listen to someone, what it is to listen without rushing into the desire to judge, fix, and change or rearrange their experience for them.”
The yet to be revealed languid blues hue of ‘Bluebelle’ will complete the set on release of the E.P. and as Mama Kin previews is
“a coming of age song where you realise how you have been careless, and the impact, and you own it. This is a song about forgiveness. Forgiving yourself, and being ready to ask and then wait for the forgiveness of those whose hearts you have been careless with when you were trusted to hold and protect them.”
After an industrious start to the first quarter of 2020, all live dates are currently on hold until further notice, however Mama Kin Spender have lots of on line content coming to keep their audience entertained during these abstract and challenging times.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
