indie moms speak out!
07May08
Having grown up with musical siblings, I know well the value of parental support, and how much it means to young bands. So when it came time to think about a feature for Mother’s Day, I thought it might be fun to get the moms of beloved indie rockers to tell us which of their kids’ songs was their favorite, and why. Their answers, I am happy to say, are absolutely heartwarming — incredibly touching, sincere and sweet. You can see the results — which includes quotes from the moms of Adam Green, Bon Iver, Headlights, Holy Fuck (!!!), Beirut and many, many more — here. Of all the editorial features we’ve ever done, this one might be my favorite.
