Narrow line

"[The] Canadian duo (...) weaves rich and luscious harmonies, old-time and Celtic melodies, and ingeniously crafted lyrics through the eleven songs on their second album ... Every song on Narrow Line carries insights into the ragged ambivalence of life. Whether this flows from a personal relationship or the shattered pieces of nature or society that seem beyond repair, there is still room for hope and resilience. Mama's Broke's spare and moving harmonies build over layers of swirling banjos and fiddle runs, creating a lush, spacious sound that stirs us emotionally and transports us".

"The duo (...) play an undeniable grain of dark gothic folk music that seems the perfect soundtrack to the challenging times we are living in 2022 ... They are described as folk-without-borders, yet it goes beyond that; their whole musical outlook is without boundary. For sure, this new album definitively builds on the obvious promise of their debut; they have already grown to a point where they are making untrammelled folk music that, whilst sounding vintage in style, could belong in no other era than the present day. Mama's Broke may seem traditional, but their tales of modern life have too much bite to be nostalgic; they are new and unique voices in modern, rootsy Americana that must be heard".
