About Mama's Broke: 

Mama’s Broke have spent over a decade in a near-constant state of transience, pounding the transatlantic tour trail. They've shared their dark, fiery folk-without-borders sound at major festivals and DIY punk houses alike, absorbing traditions from their maritime home in Eastern Canada all the way to Ireland and Indonesia. Nowhere is the duo's art-in-motion approach more apparent than on their JUNO-nominated sophomore album, Narrow Line. It's the sound of nowhere in particular, yet woven with a rich synthesis of influences that knows no borders.

The 11 songs on Narrow Line burrow deeply with close harmony duets, commanding vocals and poignant contemplations on cycles of life, including birth and death. Tinges of Americana stand side by side with the ghosts of Eastern European fiddle tunes and ancient a cappella ballad singing, melding into an unusually accessible dark-folk sound. A careful listen to Narrow Line invokes an ephemeral sense of place, whether real or imagined, inviting us to take comfort in the infinite possibilities of life, whether or not we ever choose to settle down.

For a group defined by constant touring, it's not surprising that the two artists who make up Mama’s Broke, Lisa Maria and Amy Lou Keeler, met on the road. Emerging from traveling communities rooted in music and protest, both owe the way they move through the world to the integrated and self-sustaining nature of DIY culture and activism. It was a busy life that took them on a roundabout annual touring schedule through Canada, the United States, Ireland, the UK and Europe.

The driving force behind Mama’s Broke is, and has always been, a commitment to challenge borders between people, places and traditions while encouraging freedom of expression and community through music.
