Momma Share Video for New Song ‘Motorbike’

    Brooklyn-based band Momma – the latest subject of our Artist Spotlight series – have shared one final single ahead of the release of their new album, Household Name, this Friday via Lucky Number. Following previous cuts ‘Lucky’, ‘Speeding 72’, ‘Rockstar’, and ‘Medicine’, ‘Motorbike’ arrives with an accompanying music video directed by Emma Penrose and Zack Shorrosh. Check it out below.

    “I wrote this song about a boy I had a crush on who really wanted nothing to do with me,” Allegra Weingarten, who sings lead vocals on ‘Motorbike’, explained in a statement. “The song is basically just fantasy – even though it’s about a real person, it’s also about how we can make up elaborate ideas of who other people are in our heads, and get so caught up in these fake scenarios that they kind of end up feeling real. I wanted the song to feel like you’re escaping something, because my daydreams about this boy and his motorcycle were definitely an escape from my life at the time.”
