For 20 years, The Righteous Mothers have phrased their sentiments through marvelously inventive music that ranges from rock to jazz to gospel to blues to folk, all performed with tight complex harmonies, supported by impressive instrumentation on the guitar, keyboard, bass & percussion.
Whether dealing with...
- the demeaning absurdity of the Hugh Hefner inspired body type,
- the inspiring courage of a woman named Py who fought back against a knife-wielding rapist and won,
- the breathy, panting heave-ho of birthing,
- the wild, and at times, absurd Supreme Court decisions
- or simply a secret obsession for ice cream
The Righteous Mothers remind us that we are not alone. They transform our pain and confusion into laughter and at times, hilarity.
