AP here :)


Okay so we've had a few msg's asking where the hell we are and what's happening?...
Well this week I'll be mostly putting the finishing touches to extra tracks for the Japanese version of the album including an old favourite Never Be Right and a bit of a surreal epic funk workout out Supa Sneakers. These tracks will of course be available individually via Itunes later in the year. Other than that I've been on holiday!....and also producing two singles for new Dutch artist Dennis....listen out for her first single 'Unbreakable'...
See you in Blackpool for the switch on, COME ON BLACKPOOL!!!!!

Greetings...we've been doing some radio interviews and sessions. You can watch / listen to all 3 of the songs we did at BBC Radio Solent recently by clicking HERE. Big gig in Stuttgart coming up as well as the ever-fantastic Secret Garden Party festival before we start heading into promoting the next single and the album!!!




22.06.09


OUR SINGLE IS OUT TODAY! Go to Itunes and type in Mamas Gun and you should find a link to "Single - Let's Find A Way".......Other news: We've been playing some absolutely KILLING gigs in France and Germany at Club Nouveau Casino and Wurzburg Draussen festival, respectively. The latter saw the 10,000 strong crowd chanting "Superbad-Superbad-Superbad" until they were furnished with an encore...looks like The Prof has his own fan club started too! Come July we're opening a stadium concert for The Fantastic4 in Germany and hitting the Secret Garden Party too.
See you at our 30th June single launch(ish) gig next week! AP x

SO while new single Let's Find A Way starts hitting the airwaves (we've just made the BBC Radio2 playlist!), Summer will see your favourite incendiary live band busting a few moves on a few stages around the UK & Europe. This week we're in 2 big smokes: London & Paris with Laura Izibor....and don't forget our single release show on the 30th June in Hoxton, London!

BELATED Happy New Year to all our loyal fans! After a nice break we kicked off 2009 in fine style with a live 45 minute set in Stuttgart, Germany recorded for TV. Expect to see 'what went down' up on this page very soon. Needless to say we tore the place 'a new one'. We play Midem, Cannes next week before we get into the business of finally releasing our debut LP Routes II Riches. We plan to tour extensively this year, release some more singles and and perhaps do a live record...it's all very exciting so watch this space...

LIVE SHOW NEWS   -   LIVE SHOW NEWS - LIVE SHOW NEWS - LIVE SHOW NEWS  - LIVE SHOW NEWS - LIVE SHOW NEWS - LIVE SHOW NEWS

Back from the mountains supporting KT Tunstall, Mamas gun next have the honour of sharing a stage with brilling US artist RAPHAEL SAADIQ. here is a little 'Saadiq' infor to explain why you should definitely buy a ticket to this one -

'
From his early days as a member of the groundbreaking '80s group Tony! Toni! Toné! through his work as an award-winning producer of such artists as Joss Stone, The Roots, Snoop Dogg, John Legend among many others and his own solo albums 'Every record I've ever made has had those influences...The Temptations, Al Green, The Four Tops and so on," In 2000, he created the supergroup Lucy Pearl (with En Vogue's Dawn Robinson and A Tribe Called Quest's Ali Shaheed Muhammad) Production credits for artists like Macy Gray, TLC and the Roots followed and in 2002, he released his much-anticipated first solo album, the soul-infused "Instant Vintage" made history when Raphael became the first artist nominated for no less than five Grammy Awards without having a major record label deal!

Its going to be a real pleasure opening for Raphael at one of London's top live music venues. More importantly it will certainly be a night full of some of the best soulful music around today to which MAMAS GUN will be contributing significantly!
