The Mother Hips
Twenty-five years into a celebrated career is an unlikely time to switch things up, but The Mother Hips have never been ones to follow convention. For their brilliant and exhilarating new release, ‘Chorus,’ the California stalwarts turned their recording process on its head, laying down elaborate studio demos to serve as a detailed roadmap for the album a full year before official recording sessions began. It was a step that offered both the time and space to fully realize their music like never before, and the result is the most refined and cohesive album in The Mother Hips’ catalog, one that marks the beginning of what promises to be their most creative and prolific chapter yet.
