Listen "Mama Kin Spender's ties that bind"
Episode Synopsis
If you ever asked me to recommend a live show that you could dance to, singalong with and that’d fill your heart with joy? I’d tell you to go and watch Mama Kin Spender. The duo of Mama Kin and Spender collaborated earlier this year on their debut album; combining rousing, heartfelt songs with group singing and driving drumbeats. They’ve both had a long history of solo music making but in 2018 they decided they didn’t want to go it alone anymore. But even way before they were making music, they were mates. With that long history in mind, I asked them to Take 5 with the ties that bind. The songs they had bonded over, in almost 20 years of friendship. From sonic draws, to albums gifted at milestone moments, this less a Take 5 and more an invitation to join in a beautiful conversation with friends.
