Mothers Release Video For No Crying In Baseball

Thursday, 28 January 2016 Written by Laura Johnson

Mothers have released a video for No Crying In Baseball.

The track is taken from their debut album, 'When You Walk A Long Distance You Are Tired', which is set to arrive on February 26, via the American four piece's new label, Wichita Recordings. It boasts collaborations with Josh McKay of Deerhunter on vibraphone and McKendrick Bearden of Grand Vapids, who played bass and provided string arrangements.

Discussing the video, which you can watch below, the band said:

"Inspired by a series of conversations Patrick Morales [Mothers' bassist] had with the Church of Universal Renewal, the video for No Crying In Baseball is a reflection on our relationship with media, technology and feeling. The video follows a girl in a not too distant future surrounded by language and text instructing her on how to feel. She's wandering, adrift in a sea of lost souls that in an honest attempt to tweeze meaningful connection have surrendered themselves to an external locus of feeling. The video is frenzied and meant to portray the often times fracturing role of media and technology in our lives reminiscent of what Marshal Macluhan had meant when he said 'We shape our tools and thereafter our tools shape us."

Prior to the record's release Mothers will head to the Servant Jazz Quarters on February 24 , followed by a show at the Lexington on February 26. They have also recently announced an instore appearance at Rough Trade East in London on February 27.

Mothers Upcoming Tour Dates are as follows:

Wed February 24 2016 - LONDON Servant Jazz Quarters
Fri February 26 2016 - LONDON Lexington
