Momma announce forthcoming new album, Welcome to My Blue Sky

Brooklyn-based Momma have announced their new album, Welcome to My Blue Sky, alongside the release of lead single, "I Want You (Fever)".

"I Want You (Fever)’ is a song we wrote about wanting to be with someone who has a girlfriend, or someone who isn’t over their ex,” explains the band. “It’s pining after someone, but there’s also some confidence knowing that that person wants to be with you. The second we wrote that song we felt like we were entering a new era - we scrapped everything we had written for the album up to that point because it felt so fresh and so exciting."

Welcome To My Blue Sky is the follow-up to their 2022 album Household Name. “With this album we were less concerned with sounding cool and heavy and rock & roll and much more focused on good, clean songwriting that hopefully inspires people to sing along and mean every word,” Allegra Weingarten reveals.

Welcome to My Blue Sky takes place during a charmed and turbulent summer—a transformative moment in time that co-founders Friedman and Weingarten sum up as a period of “parallel chaos.”

As they dealt with the fallout of that phase of their lives (a moment marked by infidelity, loneliness, heavy drinking, and the start of new romance), the two friends made a pact to wade through the mess together. “In a way it felt like we flipped our entire lives upside-down,” says Etta Friedman. “We needed to lean on each other to cope with everything we were going through, and writing songs together was a big part of working through those feelings and finally putting them to rest.”
