THE MOMMYHEADS CREATE ANIMATED
ROTOSCOPE VIDEO AT HOME FOR NEW SONG, "SPEAKERHEART"
"Indie pop vanguards  The Mommyheads  have continued to reappear at the most opportune times following their groundbreaking experimental indie-pop years of 1989-1998.
Experimental sounds would mix with flawless harmonies in their songs which would later inadvertently appear in the realm of Grizzly Bear and Dirty Projectors.
Perhaps The Mommyheads were 20 years ahead of their time,
but now is the perfect time to enjoy their creative contributions."
- Glide

The Mommyheads return with sparkling new music video for their latest single, "SpeakerHeart." Featuring front-to-back Rotoscope animation with over 4,000 hand sketched frames, the video brings the band's progressive existential storytelling to life. Glide premiered the video yesterday.

Although both the song and video were conceived in late 2019, the subject matter is more prophetic than expected considering the current situation.

The band is set to release their new album  New Kings of Pop  in September of this year.

The Mommyheads will donate $1 per view (with a $1,000 maximum amount) of the video premiere to the Rising Ground foundation of NY, a non-profit organization that shelters and nurtures children orphaned by The I.C.E program and Covid 19.

"Because of the current shelter in place order, filming and editing became a family affair," said The Mommyhead's Adam Elk. "Making this video kept my family busy and added another layer to our version of homeschooling."
