Album Notes

Mothership was assembled and developed in the winter months of 2005 in Denver, CO. After a bottle of champagne was broken on her bow, she began her epic voyage of exploration and discovery. Ever since, her crew has kept her in ship shape as she sails into the psychedelic horizons of destiny. The founder of Mothership, Adam Shaffner (Vocals, Guitar, Mandolin, Theramin, Saxophones), began writing songs about alternate dimensions and robotic friends with only an acoustic guitar and soon realized he could not continue such an undertaking on his own. He called upon the friendships of his childhood to join Mothership's illustrious crew: James Barone (Drums, Guitar, Vocals), Brian Marcus (Guitars, Keyboards), Robert Ballantyne (Bass), and Brendon Schulze (Guitar, Percussion, Trumpet). Conjuring the influence of their predecessors (Syd Barret, Neil Young, Hawkwind, Gong, et. al.), they will take you with them into a place they call the "MultiVerse", a psychedelic realm of mystery and self-discovery whose stories are told through an array of catchy pop tunes and massively arranged space rock. Their first record, "The Eleven Dimensional Symphony" is a concept album about the end of the Earth, an escape in a home-made spaceship, and the adventures that follow. Released May 2007.
