Mother Makes Music
Mother Makes Music is an interview-style series featuring honest, conversational stories from mothers working across the music community, from artists to industry professionals, and everyone in between.
Each episode is a real, unfiltered chat about what it actually looks like to navigate motherhood in an industry that doesn’t always make space for it. From touring and travel to behind-the-scenes work, we talk about the highs, the hard parts, and everything that falls somewhere in the middle.
Through open conversation and shared experience, we explore the challenges, the small wins, and the ways people are figuring it out as they go, without pretending there’s one “right” way to do it.
At its core, Mother Makes Music is about connection. It’s about hearing yourself in someone else’s story, and building a community where mothers in music can feel a little more seen, a little more supported, and a little less alone.
