With genetically-enhanced harmonies, powerful storytelling and an instinct for emotional honesty, mothertongue make music that cuts close to the bone. Somewhere between folk, indie and chamber-pop, their songs carry a unique combination of warmth, humour, intimacy and truth-telling — inviting listeners into the world of two women who have been singing together for a lifetime.
