New Music Discovery: Mother Mother - 'Hayloft II'

Each Tuesday and Sunday, Taylor rounds up this week’s best new music with the New Music Discovery Show. Here’s one of our favourites.

Mother Mother – “Hayloft II”

Fourteen years after releasing “Hayloft”, Mother Mother are revealing the continuation of the story with the release of “Hayloft II”.

The song arrives on the band’s deluxe edition of their album Inside.

Frontman Ryan Guldemond explained, “We have learned more about the story of ‘Hayloft’ through our fans that we ever could have unearthed ourselves. We began to ask, is there more to this story? And the resounding answer seemed to be ‘yes!’ It was an ambitious task to try to do justice to a story, and to characters, that have grown far beyond the initial intention of the song. We hope that the sequel in both song and video form honor and live up to what our incredible fans have helped ‘Hayloft’ to become.”

On Friday, Ryan chatted with Layne Mitchell on Facebook Live about the track, the album, and their upcoming tour. Mother Mother will play the Jube in May, get tickets here.

The deluxe edition of Inside features seven new songs. Stream it below.
