Mama’s addictive brand of self-penned/produced, lo-fi electro-pop has a sophisticated sultriness and an intriguing hint of darkness. Taken to the stage, this translates into scorching, diva-esque performances, dripping in sensuality but with a razor sharp delivery. Pooling inspiration that runs from Kraftwerk, to Grime and back to Kate Bush, she weaves the daily rhythms of life into songs that hover, wind and drive out of the speakers. Invoking the aura of strobe-lit underground sweatboxes and sun-drenched riverside bars, Mama possesses a club-influenced rhythmic versatility tempered with a sense of metropolitan isolation.
