New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Platinum certified alt-pop band
Mother Mother announce the release of their first new music of 2023 with the inclusive and progressively propulsive mantra 'Normalize'.
Produced by frontman Ryan Guldemond and co-produced by Jason "JVP" Van Poederooyen at the famed Warehouse Studios in Vancouver, BC, this alt-pop gem follows the 2022 release of their US Certified Gold global breakout single 'Hayloft II'.
'Normalize' arrives with an intense video directed by acclaimed horror director Colin Minihan (Grave Encounters, What Keeps You Alive), who previously worked with the band on videos for 'Body of Years' and 'O My Heart'. Watch Ryan Guldemond briefly explain the concept behind 'Nomalize'.
Of the new single, Guldemond says "'Normalize' is about the metaphorical death which occurs when we're not being ourselves; the deadening of the spirit when trying to appease some external framework of so-called normalcy. Ideally, it's an anthem for the outcast. We're very fortunate to look out at our audience to see such a wealth of uniqueness. This song is our way of telling our people to keep being themselves, whatever that means to them. What is normal? We don't know, and I'm not sure we care."
2022 catapulted
Mother Mother into a new stratosphere of universal success following the release of their critically acclaimed studio album INSIDE. Their explosive follow-up to 'Hayloft', 'Hayloft II' connected with fans around the world.
The song debuted inside the Top 10 on Spotify's Global Top Songs chart, is now certified Gold in the US and approaching Platinum in Canada and has garnered over 630 million global streams including 470 million views across YouTube to date. In addition to their Stateside RIAA Gold & Platinum tracks, the band have earned multi-Platinum certifications in their home country of Canada for the album O My
Heart as well as several of their other hit songs.
The quintet spent most of the last year touring the world playing to sold-out audiences in theaters to stadiums, including a hugely successful direct support slot with
Imagine Dragons across
Europe where they performed to millions of new fans.
