Biography
Formed in Austin, Texas USA in 2007 from unrelenting passion and a wealth of experience, MOTHERS ANTHEM crashes through barriers and brings new life to the rock scene with songs that lift, instruct and connect with those seeking to find music with meaning. When created, the band had one goal in mind, to deliver each song as a passionate message.
The music has a purpose. The purpose is to inspire.
Often it has been said that faith must begin by the acknowledgment of our own weakness and inability. Through experience we have learned that faith in one's own self and in one's own ability is a valuable asset. There is no question that through the power of music, this message can be taught, and MOTHERS ANTHEM accomplishes this goal with their powerhouse rock and roll philosophy.
The darker side of life’s consequences is what propels the MOTHERS ANTHEM experience. Musically the path is riddled with torment, heartache, turmoil and conflict. However, the belief is that confrontation and release through song allows the band and the listener to realize the road is one that is universal and facing the dark allows one to find hopeful light. MOTHERS ANTHEM proves that the final destination is worth the journey.
While longtime and new fans of each member are emotionally connecting with the band’s recently recorded debut material, ultimately, it's MOTHERS ANTHEM's live show that generates the most enthusiastic reviews. The focused vision and raw, overwhelming energy of their stage presence is brought to the stage every time no matter the circumstance. Their devout belief that every show is a new chance to share their message enables them to give the audience a performance to remember and carry with them long afterwards.
