Mother Rockers!


Gig Poster
While working as Talent Acquisition Team and Music content Manager at café Ленинград (Kalēju street 54, The Old Town of Riga, Latvia), my company M&M's music management organized more than 150 Live gigs. 5th of the Saturday's LIVE Concert (Hard Rock band CROW MOTHER) series happened on August 4th, 2012. 

The following interview was conducted on August 1st, 2012!

Mārtiņš Beitiņš Baltic a.k.a. Corey Jack Cooper (Music journalist and researcher): "For CROW MOTHER this summer is richly filled with musical adventures ... from the latest concerts You played which are Your favourite ones?"  

Edijs Jurēvics a.k.a. Eddie Jurevics (lead vocalist): "Yes, summer was spent on the road quite often, with two splendid open-airs, ROK FESTIVĀLS PĪLĀDZIS and FONOFEST, among other things. Both events had that fantastic sense that made us open ourselves and become even more close to audience, since we position ourselves as a band that doesn't avoid from its listeners. After the show we undoubtedly go into public and have fun altogether. At ROK FESTIVĀLS PĪLĀDZIS and FONOFEST sound quality was excellent, despite the weather that oftenly changed, and we noticed that it doesn’t matter either it’s sun that shines our it is raining, there were people in front of the stage ... they were with us and our Music. Anyways, big thanks to organizers of those two festivals and technical crew, since nothing would happen without them."  

Mārtiņš Beitiņš Baltic a.k.a. Corey Jack Cooper (Music journalist and researcher): "This spring, in may, second single, composition entitled Sugar, Blood & Wine, was published ... just like your debut release Killing the Love, this song also is recorded under guidance of producer Andris Bergmanis a.k.a. Zazists ... 

Edijs Jurēvics a.k.a. Eddie Jurevics (lead vocalist): "Work on recordings without Zazists wouldn’t be imaginable, he is the master of his craft and, what’s even more important, he is sincere and cruel. Very thing we as CROW MOTHER like, because there is no point in working out structure of the song if it’s not full-fledged, we polish our tracks till such stage when there’s no opposition concerning the sound or overall quality of the composition. Andris was, is and will be CROW MOTHER’s record producer. Best regards to him, good luck in his efforts and let Rock 'n' Roll always be with him."

Mārtiņš Beitiņš Baltic a.k.a. Corey Jack Cooper (Music journalist and researcher): "This Saturday, August 4th, you will perform at the Old Town of Riga café Ленинград ... what is that crowd must be prepared for / what's on Your setlist?"  

Edijs Jurēvics a.k.a. Eddie Jurevics (lead vocalist): "For this event we are preparing programme, that consist mostly of our original music and of course, there will be some more famous tunes from répertoire of The Darkness, Jet and The Raconteurs. It is possible that you’ll hear stuff of our newest creativity, but will be sure about that only on the evening of the show."

Mārtiņš Beitiņš Baltic a.k.a. Corey Jack Cooper (Music journalist and researcher): "When can we expect CROW MOTHER’s debut studio album?"  

Edijs Jurēvics a.k.a. Eddie Jurevics (lead vocalist): "Fundamentally, material is almost done, now efforts are made to polish recorded songs and improve some of our new compositions. Naturally, we can not talk about release date yet, since we don't know ourselves how much more time will we need for studio works and processes of producing, but this is our year’s Nr. 1 Plan."  

Mārtiņš Beitiņš Baltic a.k.a. Corey Jack Cooper (Music journalist and researcher): "Considering Your working capacity I’m almost sure that already You’re making video version to one of Your songs ... am I right?  

Edijs Jurēvics a.k.a. Eddie Jurevics (lead vocalist): "You know, I guess You are new Nostradamus! At this point it’s kind of a secret and we’re planing it as a surprise to our listeners. No more comments on this one, let the Intrigue remain."
